Marcy Playground – Leaving Wonderland... In A Fit Of Rage


What was originally planned to be Marcy Playground frontman John Wozniak’s second solo album turned instead into the band’s fourth full-length. You might still remember them from “Sex & Candy”, the only hit they ever had as far as I can remember. Hell, I didn’t even know they were still around but apparently they’ve kept on going all those years.

There’s nothing really wrong with “Leaving Wonderland... In A Fit Of Rage”. Just like there wasn’t anything wrong with 1997’s self-titled debut. It’s catchy and fun rock with the occasional mellow moment thrown in and Wozniak still sounds like a Billy Corgan who can actually sing. And yes, the man can still write catchy choruses for songs that all sound pretty diverse. Basically, this is just a fun album.
Score: 6.5 out of 10
