This sixth album by the band is a well-rounded proficient release.

Its cleverness and humour burst like springs from an overstuffed rococo couch.

Honest, uncompromising, raw and restless, it's a rock album of some distinction.

Bold, colourful and eclectic, 'Have Some Faith' displays a vivid musical palette showcasing a band growing in scope and stature.

It's more a relic of the past than a record of the future.

A quirky and sincere collection.

Intense and claustrophobic, it's a surprisingly revelatory record that captures the highs and lows of human experience and existence.

With clean production and virtuoisitic precision, imagine a Latin, metal, jazz inspired mellow mele, on acoustic instruments.

Sounding like club music for grown-ups wanting a decadent summer of love return without wanting their troublesome kids tagging along... Likely to be a hit in the woods and beyond.

Notably shorter than its predecessor, MU.ZZ.LE is just as rich and arresting, cataloguing Sumach's echoes, mumbles and stumbles through an album of lethargic trip hop and uneasy paranoia.

The Lion's Roar is full of rich textures that unfurl around Klara and Johanna's bittersweet harmonies.

It's hard to resist.

Most certainly a bedroom record affair and perhaps suffering for this fact but the overall sentiment captured make up for whatever shortcomings may be presented.

While they still don't quite seem to be the finished article, there's plenty of promise.

An impressive debut.

It's a band comfortable with the idea of growing up but like kids trying on their parent's clothes, the ideas behind Aabenbaringen Over Aaskammen are a little oversized but not by much.

While offering more of the same, nevertheless does it with sparkle and verve.

Infuriatingly irresistible.

The three-year hiatus has been worth the largely triumphant return.

I have seen the future of dreamy pop, and its name is The Maccabees.

A fluorescent, gently psychedelic record with a fat vein of Eighties pop running through it.

A few moments of confusion and inconsistency, yet remains engulfing, evocative and mood setting.

It's upbeat, unusual and accomplished, an Asian rock 'n' roll space odyssey indeed.

100 Acres... drips with sonic gloss.

Virtually every track stands alone fine. But listened to as an album, it's repetitive and numbing.

Not an unqualified success but worth your consideration.

A blindingly good debut.

You don't even need to know about the box-set's extras: if teenage angst is the root of rock and roll, then 'Quadrophenia' is its definitive statement.
