TUES 13TH MAY - MARVIN & THE COLOR OF THE SUN @ THE MOTHER'S RUIN
Marvin are Emilie, Fred and Greg, a guitar-drums-keyboards three piece from Montpellier, France. Marvin like to have fun, and want you to have some too. Eschewing the pretence and po-facedness that so often seems to come as part of the territory of DIY music, Marvin make blistering, noisy and truly joyful pop. Pounding drums and walloping riffs are offset by quirky, catchy analogue synth melodies, the result being something akin to a heavier Devo, the poppiest moments of Lightning Bolt or the tight, proggy silliness of Oxes or Trans Am. Vocals come in the form of simple refrains, chants and yelps, which seem somehow like the appropriate response to the primitive energy and joy generated by three musicians bouncing playful melodies and rhythms off each other. Throw in a bit of The Boredoms and Pere Ubu, and you’ll start to understand the fun you’ll have here. Put simply, this is part music for dancing to – and what’s wrong with that?
