Virginia alt-rockers Mae run the risk of being lumped in with other genre "positivists" such as Relient Kand Switchfoot, but based on the aptly named Singularity, that would be a mistake, as the LP sets them apart as pop perfectionists who are able to synthesize bright melodic hooks and rock muscle into a guitar pop perfection that is (yes) singular. This is a lively, octane-fueled, and hook-ridden album that yields up all kinds of power pop delights.
