Submarine is the second full-length studio album by American indie pop band The Marías, released in 2024. It has received positive reviews from critics.

Recording and release

After finishing their Cinema tour promoting their previous album, María Zardoya and Josh Conway had broken up romantically and the band spent four months apart before the first sessions which would later become Submarine.[2] The film Three Colours: Blue inspired many elements of the album, inclduing the "very intentional" colour palette shift from red to blue.[3]

In the lead up to Submarine, four singles were released. "Run Your Mouth" was released on 7 March 2024 alongside a music video. The song was written shortly after their breakup in which María felt "conflict avoidant" at the time[4], and the song had also previously been performed on tour since 2022[5]. "Lejos De Ti" was released alongside another video on 5 April 2024, which was shot in Lake Tahoe.[6] The final two singles, "If Only" and "No One Noticed", were released on 3 May 2024 simultaneously. The final album was released on 31 May 2024.

Reception

Writing at the Associated Press, Elise Ryan praised the "genre-bending experimentation that characterized" the band's previous work made up of "varied, lush productions" that listeners "will enjoy sinking into".[7] Robin Murray of Clash Music rated this album a 7 out of 10, stating that "this is a crisp album, well curated and often surprising" that advances the band's sound, helping them to "move past the barrier of the tricky second album with no small degree of confidence".[1]
