The remaining healthy members of Eve6, guitarist Jon Siebels and drummer Tony Fagenson, bravely faced a bitter crowd and apologized for Collins' sickness and promised to redeem all tickets for passes to their April 20 show at either Karma or the Avalon. They then introduced Marvelous3 as "the greatest live band around," a compliment that this Atlanta-based power pop trio live...

Appearances are often deceiving, but in this instance Walker's countenance is as paradoxical as the refreshing blend of peppy lyrics and heavy riffs of Hey! Album, the major label debut of Marvelous3. The album has a surprisingly crisp sound, despite the apparent dichotomy between the band's power instrumentals and unabashedly poppy lyrics and up-beat vocals. For three guys with names like Butch and Slug who try very hard to look dark and disturbed, their music...
