Hey! Album, the second record from Atlanta's Marvelous 3, started life as an independent release before Elektra signed the band in mid-1998 and put it back out remixed, overdubbed and reshuffled. The major-label version dropped "Cold As Hell", "Fastboat" and "I Just Wanna Go Home" and swapped in "Write It On Your Hand" and "Vampires In Love", and a good chunk of it was cut again from scratch.
What you get is sugar-rush pop-punk with fat hooks and a wiseguy grin, and the single that lit the fuse was "Freak of the Week", which caught fire on Atlanta's WNNX before spreading nationally and reaching number five on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart. The band stayed on the road through 1998 and 1999, opening for Collective Soul and sharing a club tour with Dynamite Hack. Butch Walker went on to a big solo career and to produce Pink, Weezer and Fall Out Boy.
