Flashback Friday: Frente!
Today’s Flashback Friday is a cover of Bizarre Love Triangle by the Australian based band Frente! off the Marvin The Album LP.
Bizarre Love Triangle was originally written and recorded by the fantastic New Order in the late 80’s, but Frente’s somber, quiet version lets you really appreciate the beautiful lyrics in the song. Gone is the heavy sampled techno beat from the original, replaced only with an Acoustic guitar and frontwoman Angie Hart’s lilting voice.
Formed in 1991, Frente! emerged from a radio playlist of jaded grunge rockers dominating the scene and became something of a hit with their first few singles, including another Frente! fav of mine, Labour of Love, Accidentally Kelly Street, and Ordinary Angels. Their second produced album, Shape, failed to sell and the band soon broke up afterwards.
