The Marvelous 3 is a band with an urbane name and a brand of pop-rock to match. Lead singer and guitarist Butch Walker often sings suspended notes in a timbre resonating heavily with nasal Bowie-ness. Drummer Slug and bassist Jayce follow suit with riffs that stop just short of grungy aggression, tempered with a polished reserve. Sound like the perfect Brit band? You´d say yes when you hear how Walker rounds out his words with proper British diction. But this trio from Atlanta would have you fooled. Maybe they´re poseurs? Who cares. With lyrics cheekier than Ben Folds´s and hooks far more memorable than Third Eye Blind´s or Matchbox 20´s, their songs are refreshingly structured and predictable in a way that is wholeheartedly gratifying. A combination of ´90s noisy guitar rock, ´80s pacing, and ´70s glam, Hey! is unapologetically radio-ready and a hell of a lot of fun.
