Marah - Angels of Destruction
These American rockers have been embraced by Bruce Springsteen and immortalized in High Fidelity by British author Nick Hornby, who named the group’s 2001 London appearance as one of his “all-time top five gigs” and its song “My Heart is the Bums on the Street” to his “Top 10 songs I can’t live without.” With Marah’s sixth album, it’s easy to see why. Songs like “Coughing Up Blood,” “Wild West Love Song” and the anthemic “Santos de Madera” rock with all the soulful swagger of a glorious E Street Shuffle.
