Jesse Malin, formerly of hardcore trio Heart Attack and glam punks D Generation (and a lengthy solo career), has unveiled his new band and album. The St. Marks Social will be releasing their debut via SideOneDummy Records. The record is titled Love It To Life and is due out April 27, 2010. The label had this to say about the band:

Over the summer of 2009, in the basement of Avenue A watering hole Hi-Fi, the songs came forth. Malin, with impresario Don DiLego, drummer Randy Schrager, guitarist Matt Hogan, and bassist/DJ Tommy USA, worked with his newly formed band to bash out an album s worth of gritty anthems, and The St. Marks Social was born. A solid band, but one with an open door to Malin s community of musician friends - longtime partner in crime Ryan Adams, pop singer Mandy Moore, fellow label mate Brian Fallon, and former bandmates from D Generation Howie Pyro and Danny Sage - the Social is a group effort to keep the P.M.A. Says Malin, To me, rock n roll is an exorcism that begins every night when the sun goes down, the music starts playing, and the spirits start flowing. It helps to say things in public over dirty microphones. It s a way to spit out the poison.

The band have also announced a month long residency at the Bowery Electric in New York City. More details can be found here.
