Hello Mary first came to my attention when they opened for Blondshell last summer. Now the trio are back with new music. I had mentioned that their songs got heavier and more art rock as their set went on, and that's pretty much how "0%" goes. The new song starts incredibly bass heavy, and then turns into this heavy alt-rocker with plenty of screaming and spoken parts that sound almost like sampled audio. You know your favorite song from an album from the 90's that wasn't a single and was just an obscure b-side with the band cutting loose that would never ever get played live? That's what "0%" is like. It's a strange single that doesn't feel like a single, but still has some unexpected pop sensibilities within all the bizarre noise.
Hello Mary says of their new single:
“0% is one of our favorites to play live. Our inspirations in the last year have broadened, and we feel like this song reflects that.”
You can watch the video for "0%" below. The single is out now via French Kiss Records. For more on Hello Mary, check out the band's website. Upcoming tour dates are below the video.
