Snippets from Killec reviews: (totally manipulating - see blog for full reviews!)
'Times Will Change' raises the bar some more, making Marvins Revolt not just an amazing Scandinavian pop band, but one of the best bands of the year. - Die Shellsuit, Die! (UK)
Marvins Revolt, today a three-piece, have created a very exciting album, completely forging its own musical path. A progressive little delicacy. - Diskant (DK)
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. – it’s a trap! (US)
Killec is an intense rollercoaster ride, crooked metres rubbing shoulders with edgy riffs and surprisingly lyrical melodies. – Gaffa (DK)
Marvins Revolt are unlike any band I've heard before - in an extremely good way. From the moment they started up, the off-kilter rhythms and timing caught everyone by surprise. Each immaculately timed stop and start seemed to punctuate a stab at a different genre; ridiculously, they all flowed together into coherent 3 and 4 minute songs that work fantastically well. - www.shamzine.com (live review) (UK)
Described as “experimental indie” , this label certainly applies here but like other Popular artists such as Adebisi Shank and The Vinny Club have an insane ear for making addictive noisy tunes.
It's an impressive release... - Nialler9.com (Ire)
The Danish math-pop trio (live, quartet) have made a particularly good album. Over eight tracks Marvins’ playful guitar flourishes, adventurous rhythms and poetic lyrics make Killec an accomplished debut. – AU Magazine (N. Ire)
Quality speaks for itself!
I want more! More! – Arbejderen (DK)
Abgedreht, souverän und sehr sie selbst, diese Dänen. - Nordische Musik (DE)
In the past, I always liked Marvins Revolt but they could never keep my attention for a long time. This changed with the new record which underlines the great progression of the band. – Disagreement (Lux)
You won't get bored. It might be because the frequent pitch changes mess with your inner rhythm box. It might be because the compositions catches your verse-chorus-verse expectations off guard all the time, and it's definitely because you have to stay alert at all times to figure out what the songs are moving towards. In other words; the second album from Marvins Revolt is an interesting and unorthodox rock album. - Soundvenue (DK)
Their super technical, complex guitar licks and instrumentation don't make for an easy listen - MR is well worth it though... - Come Pick Me Up (US)
I’m gonna ask you to trust me on this. Play this song as if there was no tomorrow. – Me and the Horse I Rode In On (DK)
No matter whether you chose to put up with Marvins Revolt’s artistic approach or not, you can’t neglect that Killec is an excellent album. - Geiger (DK)
On this show, we also heard Deliberate Deeds from Marvins Revolt, who hail from Denmark, are signed to Irish DIY Popular Records, and who played in The Boom Boom Room last Wednesday night with support from Adebisi Shank. They were pretty fucking cool and Deliberate Deeds is as catchy as chlamydia. - The Indie Hour (Ire)
Marvins Revolt are one of the best live bands you will ever see. A statement of fact. - The Defeat (Reading, UK)
MARVINS REVOLT of Copenhagen, Denmark make angular and catchy tunes. Hard hitting rhythms combined with joyful and romantic melodies creates an ever changing, but always meaningful musical landscape.
The songs appear as intense, challenging and melodic structures, with disregard for songwriting rules.
Marvins Revolt started out in 2002 and as a quartet they released an Ep (st, 2004) and an album (Fell in Love with Tanks & Satellites, 2006) in this ‘early’ period. It was noisy and aggressive.
Killec was released in the fall of 2007 by Irish diy-label Popular Records to great response from media and audience.
Killec is the fresh and exciting sound of a new-born collective, now a three-piece, with no musical boundaries.
The release of Killec has been followed by two tours in the UK and Ireland as well as a tour of mainland Europe together with label mates Adebisi Shank, all of them to great response from audiences captured by the band’s intense and energetic live performance.
Killec is being re-released by the Richter Collective to a larger scale of European distribution in the fall of 2008 and a vinyl edition of the album will be available from Glowing Monkey Records in the summer 2008.
Marvins Revolt is a three-piece when creating and recording. A four-piece when playing live!
