“The Weird and Wonderful Marmozets” is the debut studio album by the English alternative rock band Marmozets. Recently picked by Rolling Stone magazine as one of “10 New Artists You Need To Know”, Marmozets staked their claim amongst the best records of 2014. Alternative Press placed “The Weird And Wonderful Marmozets” at #5 on their “10 essential albums of 2014” list, Metal Hammer placed “The Weird And Wonderful Marmozets” at #8 on their “2014 Critics Choice” list and Big Cheese named “The Weird And Wonderful Marmozets” their #1 album of 2014. Furthermore, Marmozets were voted “Best New Band” in the 2014 Kerrang!

Google Marmozets – two sets of siblings, some still in their teens – and you’ll see them described, forebodingly, as a math-rock band. But while there are fiddly time signatures and intricate drum patterns on the Yorkshire quintet’s debut album, they take a distant second place in the list of priorities to metallic hooks and melodies. Singer Becca Macintyre keeps her own accent as she skips from sweetness to rage, and even if some of the lyrical sentiments don’t really merit scrutiny, they serve to provide huge choruses for Born Young and Free, Why Do You Hate Me? and Is It Horrible. Best of all, though, is the dynamism of the music: although songs flit around from riff to riff, as if Marmozets were bursting to fill each song with ideas, they are never too full, never just exercises in technique. It sounds, simply, as if Marmozets are the rock equivalent of Jordan from The Great British Bake Off, who wanted to make a cake that contained every single one of his favourite ingredients. And why not?

4 stars out of 5 — “Vocalist Becca Macintyre is a great find, possessing an idiosyncratic voice that easily switches gears from maniacal to melodic. She deftly navigates her bandmates’ power displays while retaining a human veneer…”
