Hello! Look, I can't keep praising The High Water Marks all of the time or you’ll be like, "Josh, you're their publicist. We need an objective point of view!"
Fair.
Here's what Will at We All Want Someone To Shout For says today about the first two singles from the upcoming 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘕𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘞𝘰𝘭𝘧 (out June 9 on Minty Fresh): "Wicked good... All the best elements of charming 90s power pop... in all the ways you'd expect from a band involving Hilarie Sidney, the co-founder of iconic Elephant 6 Recording Company. Sugary vocals, tight guitar riffs, and an infectious presence that simply soars."
That's it, there it is!
Now you can use your eyes to listen to the new single by The High Water Marks! Watch "An Imposed Exile" during your "work" hours!
Nathan at Austin Town Hall says: “I’m all about the execution of perfect pop... the melodic nature of the vocals galloping atop those fuzzy jangling guitars is just absolutely sublime."
Hilarie says: "It was a big year for us because we all got to record in Kentucky together and we played our first show together in Oslo with Pavement. I wanted to make a video with us in it and this one is like our greatest hits of 2022."
𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘕𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘞𝘰𝘭𝘧 (17 tracks!) is out June 9 from Minty Fresh.
If you want your brain taken over by an earworm, I am offering you this opportunity!
As Joshua Pickard writes in Beats Per Minute: "Trouble From The East" by The High Water Marks is a "rocker of sustainable emotional malleability, using blissed-out guitar riffs and pop-centric harmonies to examine the impact of war and nuclear annihilation. Calling Norway home, the band knows firsthand about the perceived threat of violence from just across geographical lines."
Don't be afraid! Click for your life!
Three-quarters of The High Water Marks live in Norway. They have invited me to move there. I am posting this publicly for posterity. I have been to Oslo and it is very expensive, but America is becoming more costly by the minute and I ain't talkin' 'bout inflation, yo!
Anyway, did you know that the band has been announced for Indiefjord 2022 in the western Norway village of Bjørke on July 9 + 10?!
Also, too, as well, and additionally: follow the link to check this interview with Norwegian site Lost In The Nordics (formerly A Portal To The Nordics). Per Ole manages to squeeze in a mention of the failed KISS soundtrack 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘤 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 “𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘌𝘭𝘥𝘦𝘳.”
