Guitarist
Simon Austin formed the Melbourne, Australian folk-pop band
Frente! in 1991, bringing in
Angie Hart,
Simon Austin (guitar), Tim O'Connor, and
Mark Picton (replaced by
Alastair Barden) to round out the lineup.
Frente! entered the international spotlight in the summer of 1994 with their quirky acoustic version of
New Order's "Bizarre Love Triangle." On the back of that single,
Marvin: The Album entered the charts, with the single "Labor of Love" becoming a minor hit. Shape followed in 1996. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
