A Collection of Rarities and Previously Unreleased Material
“This set from the lo-fi pop eccentric gathers odds and ends from across his career. But weirdly it functions surprisingly well as an album, documenting changes in his sonic evolution and singular sense of humor along the way.”
We Must Become the Pitiless Censors of Ourselves
“The avant-pop songwriter whose career has intersected with that of Ariel Pink focuses on melody and delivers a delightfully weird full-length.”
Screen Memories
“John Maus relishes a sonic world without boundaries”
Screen Memories
“The latest collection from synth-pop retrofuturist and punk intellectual John Maus contains grander, darker songs than his previous albums. It’s a thrill to encounter his singular voice.”
Screen Memories
“We last saw John Maus in 2011, when he released ‘We Must Become the Pitiless Censors of Ourselves’, a frantic album that channelled the dark sides of new wave and synth-pop. He’s been silence ever since, except for an interesting yet pleonastic collection of previously unreleased material surfacing in 2012. During these six years, the Minnesotan artist has pursued his academic career, earning a Ph”
Addendum
“Presented as a companion piece to last year’s Screen Memories, John Maus’ latest captures the avant-garde artist at his most irreverent and unguarded.”
