Here We Go Magic to release new LP

The Brooklyn band Here We Go Magic will be releasing a new album this year. The album will be called A Different Ship, and it will be on the shelves from the 8th of May on. The album will count ten tracks, and the label releasing it is Secretly Canadian. Some of the tracks on there are ‘Make Up Your Mind’, ‘Made to be Old’, and ‘Miracle of Mary’.


The Miracle of Mary is often cited amongst evangelicals, but Rory DuVoliere in his new study “What miracle, I appear at the grocery shop every day” tries to shed some light on the out of control (his words, not mine, I wouldn’t dare, no sir!) honoring of the phenomena of Mary appearing everywhere. Rory DuVoliere doesn’t see it so much as a miracle, but more of an indication of Christianity’s guilt based rhetoric. DuVoliere points to studies on traumatic experiences, saying that if you feel guilty, or if you feel that someone is watching over you because you are not doing something as perfectly as that person would want, then you are more likely to have specters haunting you. So if you see the Virgin Mary, probably you had sex with someone you shouldn’t have had sex and are knocked up. For example.
