EPIC FAIL...complete Remember AM radio, T-top automobiles and tube socks pulled up to the knee while wearing roller skates. I say that it is back.
"Some say that the day and age of well-crafted lyricism accompanied by thoughtful melodies expressed with talent and emotion passed us by long ago. And THE MARQUES have hit the target with their debut EP entitled "- OF EXCELLENCE". Erupting on the scene with a resounding, fist-pumping chorus of hooks, torrent of chops and a back-beat that will keep you toe-a-tappin', THE MARQUES has conjured up th
e spirit of power-pop rock'n roll at it's finest hour. Hailing from the Mecca of the South, this Trio de Force have already wowed the most scrutinizing of listeners from the Big Apple to the Pan Handle. Combining the vim of The Nerves with the vigor of the Plimsouls, they have culled the mines of power-pop. Take a listen, come to any live show, see for yourself. These three lads are not playing for keeps, they are playing for NOW. "
