The Mary Onettes are another Labrador Records wonder whose closest cousin, in terms of sound, is probably Sambassadeur. They focus more on ambience and atmosphere than melody with a sound most akin to The Jesus and Mary Chain and other shoegaze greats from the 1980s. Critics have been harsh on them, but I'm a huge fan of their sounds. Here are some recs:
Albums: Islands (2009), The Mary Onettes (2007)
Tracks: Lost, Void, Puzzles, Dare, Explosions, The Disappearance of My Youth
