33 Revolutions per Minute is Marxman's debut album, released in the United Kingdom on 1 April 1993,[2] with a slightly modified version being released in the United States the following year.[1] Three singles were released in the UK from the album – the double A side "Dark are the Days" and "Sad Affair", the latter of which was banned by the BBC due to its Irish Republican lyrics, "Ship Ahoy" and finally "All About Eve", which was the group's greatest commercial success reaching number 28 in the UK Singles Chart.[3]
