Head over to Chart Attack to see the first of our "anti-video" series directed by the bands own Brett Zadravetz and our own Jenny Warne! We have one for each song off the record, so stay tuned.  *Marriage's OK to Disconnect is out Friday May 15.

We are very excited to welcome Marriage to the HOC family! Listen to the first single "Boy-M" on SILENT SHOUT! On Marriage’s debut full length OK To Disconnect, out on May 13 via Heretical Objects Cooperative, all the chaotic points of their previous efforts converge to form a fully realized & cohesive tonal image with great depth and subtle intricacies. Heavily indebted to artists Len Lye and Philippe Blanchard, the band has produced a series of music videos for each track on the album, sculpting out their bold audio corpus with visual flesh and limbs.

Release Show: May 15th @ Double Double Land w/ Mystic Triangle & DOOMSQUAD DJ set

BIO:

From No Wave to Power Pop, Toronto's Marriage eat up everything in their vicinity only to regurgitate it back onto the floor in a heap of neon sludge. Since their formation in 2013, the prolific young 4 piece has released 10 singles and b-sides, as well as a series of EPs (most free online). Onstage, Marriage offer up their sound in tandem with homemade installations that have included wire-frame sculptures, noise-sensitive light, and a large pulsating egg. The band’s interdisciplinary tendencies have led to shows in venues like the Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery and the Gladstone Hotel. Sonically and visually, Marriage create a nest of spectral delights that awaits your presence to reveal its contents.
