Hey! Album is the second album by the American rock band Marvelous 3,[5][6] released in 1999. It was originally released independently in 1998. The album's original independent release featured three tracks, "Cold As Hell", "Fastboat", and "I Just Wanna Go Home" that would be dropped in the favor of "Write It On Your Hand" and "Vampires In Love" when the album was re-released on the major label Elektra. Roughly 40% of the album was re-recorded for the early 1999 release. However, in mid-1998 the band was signed by Elektra Records and a repackaged, remixed (and overdubbed) and reshuffled version of the album was released on October 27, 1998. With national buzz seeping from the airwaves of WNNX-FM in Atlanta, the album's lead single "Freak Of The Week" carried the band into 1999, reaching #5 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart and #23 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. The band spent most of 1998 and 1999 on the road in support of the album, opening for bands such as Collective Soul and co-headlining a club tour with Dynamite Hack.
