Album Notes & Community Reviews

Finding international success with their acoustic cover of New Order's 'Bizarre Love Triangle', the Australian quartet released this delightfully melodic debut. 'Marvin the Album' is a cornerstone of 90s twee pop, characterized by its playful, stripped-down acoustic instrumentation and Angie Hart's distinctive vocals.
