Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum is the debut studio album by American rock band Tally Hall. Their previous recordings were all independently produced and distributed demos. All of the tracks on the album are finished versions of their demo tracks, with the exception of "Haiku," which is a completely new song. The album gets its name from a museum of mechanized curiosities that is located in Farmington Hills, Michigan. The album’s art is also based on a number of machines located within the museum.
The album was officially re-released on September 12, 2006 under the Quack! Media label. This re-release coincided with additional publicity on MTV, national distribution in all major retail stores, and various other TV appearances including The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. The music video for "Good Day" was first shown at Tally Hall's two Ann Arbor concerts on September 23, 2006.
Tally Hall was later signed with Atlantic Records, and was approved to re-record Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum at Stratosphere Sound Recording Studios in NYC. The first single ("Good Day") from the new version of the album was released on February 26, 2008. The re-recorded version of the album was released on April 1, 2008. This release also included a vinyl LP pressing of the album.
