Spanish Love Songs have released “Marvel”, the final track releasing ahead of the upcoming album ‘No Joy’ out August 25 via Pure Noise Records.

 

“Marvel’ is the backbone of the album thematically,”  says vocalist and guitarist Dylan Slocum. “It was written for a friend, and the chorus was a throwaway joke that has just sort of stuck.

Find the things you need to stay afloat.
