Customer Reviews

The songs just grow on you
The last album from the Legendary (in some circles, at least) Marvelous 3. I must admit that, upon my first few listenings, I was underwhelmed. Some catchy hooks and melodies, but not as good as The Hey Album. So I put the disc aside for awhile, then decided several months later to give it another spin. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised.

I have to disagree with the reviewer who said that it sounds good at first, then gets worse the more times you hear it (I paraphrase). It had the opposite effect on me. The more I listen to it, the more I hear, and the more I like the songs.

Butch Walker is doing his Butch Walker thing times ten, which is never a bad thing. You can't tell if the whole thing's a joke or to be taken seriously. And if it's a joke, just who is the joke on? But the music is there, and so are the lyrics. It possesses a seriousness and yet is still able to laugh at itself (ie: to not take the music too serious) at the same time. This album rocks, rolls, and occasionally offends (as most of BW's records seem to do). Straight-ahead rock, metal, pseudo-metal, grandiose overblown arena-rock pretentiousness (yet still good), and even a slow(er) song or two make this album a hard-rockin' fan's delight.

If you're a Butch Walker fan, do yourself a favor and get this disc. If it doesn't grab you right away ( which it very well might ) give it some time, and you'll be banging your head along with the Marv 3 in no time.

very nice
A couple of years ago, this would have received 5 stars from me. I miss this band, and I wish they wouldn't have went their seperate ways. Anyway, the album is full of all sorts of fun. Hysterical lyrics are present in every song. Great emphasis on sexual innuendo and 80's themes. Great vocals, great guitar hooks, many very special guest appearances, musical and otherwise (he even got Bowie!!!). This has power rock stamped all over it in my opinion. It is a total departure from the power pop of their previous release, the HEY! Album. Better songs, better quality, even funnier. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to have a laugh while listening to great music.

Marvelous 3 should be a top band
Once again a little humor. Great guitar rifts and lyrics are fantastic. Song after song these guys rock. If you like rock and you are a purist, you will love this cd.
