CRITIC REVIEWS

It is the work of a daring group of young men who are experimenting with their sound and exploring every facet of their musical knowledge.

Pitchfork

You can still hear traces of other bands here, but Mazes' sound now is more an idiosyncratic hybrid than an enthusiastic photocopy.

DIY

To follow a critically and publicly popular debut with something not only different but also less accessible and immediate is ambitious, brave, and worthy of respect in itself. 

60
NME

Maturity is nice, but is it wrong to want the fun times back?

Houdanny

The intro track kinda goes off, with its progressive intro and catchy refrains. But the rest kinda devolves into tried and true post-punk tinged indie rock with little to no discernible qualities.
