The Martha’s Vineyard Ferries is a rock band featuring Elisha Wiesner (Kahoots) on guitar, Bob Weston (Shellac, Volcano Suns, Mission of Burma) on bass guitar, and Chris Brokaw (Come, Codeine, The New Year) on drums. Their new record, Mass. Grave, was released earlier this week on Kiam Records.

Taking and channeling influences as diverse as Minor Threat and The Byrds, the band manage to create a most engaging, if unholy, cacophony of noisy rock’n’roll. Nowhere is it showcased better than on She’s A Fucking Angel (From Fucking Heaven) – well perhaps until you hear the propulsive, threatening menace of Blonde On Blood which we fell totally in love with on first listen.

And so should you…have a listen.
