Danish act Marvins Revolt may have pared down to three members, but they certainly haven't streamlined their sound. They've taken that noiserock/post-punk they were doing and taken way further out into prog territory. More notes, more starts, more stops, and yes, more better. I'm not totally crazy about the ricky-ticky opening of this particular track, but there's so many other great moments, I forget about the weak beginning. Like when those keys come in and offset the guitar/bass riff until they all come cascading down together, leading back into the second verse. Or whatever you'd call that part as this definitely isn't verse/chorus type rock'n'roll. Also, the way they kick it up a notch soon thereafter, altering the parts just enough to build the excitement. The best part however, is the end. That's when the endlessly cycling guitar riff starts up over the odd drumbeat that seems to lack a clear downbeat. Then the bass and vocals slowly come back in, taking the lead and creating a tumultuous polyphony. Just when you think they'll go to a fade-out, they wrap it up in a neat little package. Well done!

Apparently the band is also going through some sort of major metamorphoses and this will be the last we get from the band as we currently know 'em. I'll let you know when I hear more.
The debut album "Fell in love with tanks & satellites" from Marvins Revolt reminds me a bit of Muse's first record "Showbiz". It's disjointed and even a bit amateurish at times, but it's also ambitious and quite promising. But instead of trying to mash together "Bends"-era Radiohead with Nirvana, Marvins Revolt tries their damnest to make Interpol-style post-punk work with big, noisy guitar-rock ala Chavez. Sometimes they do okay, especially when they rely on the latter rather than the former like on the track I've posted today, but a lot of the time it just doesn't quite click. Still, like I said, the potential is there. Muse figured it out and delivered a stunner for their sophomore album, so it's certainly possible that Marvins Revolt could do the same. Keep an eye on 'em.
