Mary Anne’s Polar Rig is a guitar/producer duo coming straight from the underground rock scene of Malmö, Sweden. With a sound influenced by the 90’s scene as well as the new wave of female fronted rock, they play a sort of “fuzzed out” pop where the dynamic vocals together with the noisy jangly guitars are in focus. This is the second album by Malmö's Mary Anne's Polar Rig and their first since signing to Rama Lama Records (Kindsight, Melby etc.) as well as a change in line-up. Makes You Wonder is shape-shifting art rock that’s alternatively brooding and euphoric, the record is packed with irresistible melondies, eedle-sharp guitars, scuffed-knees scrappiness and Hofvander’s snarling, growling and yelping vocals, but compared to their debut it vastly expands the scope of what they can do with it. The album is out on gatefold blue/yellow marbled vinyl with a first pressing limited to 300 copies and digipak CD.
