Marvins Revolt er en trio fra Danmark, dannet i 2002. Bandet spiller kantet, men melodiøs pop/rock. Passer nok bedst under betegnelsen math rock, men er blevet mindre støjende, mere komplekse og melodiøse med tiden! Har før spillet på Fryd, og det er ikke et sekund for tidligt med et gen-besøg!
Og så tager vi den også på engelsk...
MARVINS REVOLT of Copenhagen, Denmark make angular and catchy tunes. Hard hitting rhythms combined with joyful and romantic melodies creates an ever changing, but always meaningful musical landscape. The songs appear as intense, challenging and melodic structures, with disregard for songwriting rules.
Marvins Revolt started out in 2002 and as a quartet they released an Ep (st, 2004) and an album (Fell in Love with Tanks & Satellites, 2006) in this ‘early’ period. It was noisy and aggressive.
Killec was released in the fall of 2007 by Irish diy-label Popular Records to great response from media and audience. Killec is the fresh and exciting sound of a new-born collective, now a three-piece, with no musical boundaries.
The release of Killec has been followed by two tours in the UK and Ireland as well as a tour of mainland Europe together with label mates Adebisi Shank, all of them to great response from audiences captured by the band’s intense and energetic live performance.
Marvins Revolt is a three-piece when creating and recording. A four-piece when playing live!
Og om irlænderne...
ADEBISI SHANK are a three-piece noise rock troupe made up of Lar (Guitars,Bleeps) and Vinny (Bass,Blips) from Dublin and Mick (Drums) from Wexford. Lar and Mick can also be founding playing with Terrordactyl while Vinny makes up the 8-bit one man band - The Vinny Club. Their bio labels them as “synthy, off-kilter math-fueled fun” which I think is slightly misleading, because Adebisi Shank possess something which a lot of so-called ‘puzzle pop’ (LOL NME!) band don’t have - feeling. Witnessing their live show is akin to watching a nervous breakdown:limbs flailing, bodies jerking and frenetic energy pours out of this band. You get the impression that they mean every note.
And so onto their eponomously-titled EP. Kicking off with the ferocious, bass-driven demon stomp of “Horse”, the Shank really set out their modus operandi early. Pulsing drums push the songs along and the bass at some points over the course of the EP is so dextrous that it could be mistaken for an additional guitar. The guitar work really shines through on this EP - Lar coaxes sounds from his instrument that are other-worldly at times and hellish the next. On “You Shouldn’t Be In White”,he unleashes torrents of riffs, each more complex and engaging than the previous. Then at the song’s climax, suddenly the mood changes and waves of serenity flood the speakers and washes over the listener as if to calm them after the intensity which has come before.This shows that Adebisi are more than just spazz rock- the level of feeling they inject into every tune shows a depth their peers sorely lack.
