MAPS - Start Something

MAPS

Start Something
Last Space
INDIE

Superb mini-album of lush avant-pop from MAPS. Following two much sort after, sold out and self distributed 10" singles on their own label, LAST SPACE RECORDINGS, Maps compiles the four songs from these two singles plus two exclusive songs on one CD

MAPS manage to combine melancholic pop with subtle technology and will appeal to fans of STONE ROSES, MERCURY REV, BOARDS OF CANADA & POSTAL SERVICE.

ARTROCKER ((((( "Unquestionably the finest EP of the year." ... THE FLY: "Ulrich Schnauss playing too much Spiritualized on no sleep and it's utterly brilliant." ... IDJ LEFTFIELD SINGLE OF THE MONTH: "Its a roughed-up, broken-down pop that's tipping its hat to all sorts of predecessors without being in thrall to them." ... MUSIC WEEK: "Without seeing any of the other releases on this page before it went to print, it's still a safe bet it's the best on this page."... UPDATE "Psychedelically coloured wonderment" ((((... INTERNATIONAL DJ "A modern day My Bloody Valentine" ((((... GOOD FOR NOTHING "Melodic instinct of The Byrds" ((((... FLUX "A debut worth getting very excited about" ... ROUGH TRADE SHOP "EP of the week" (((((... PICCADILLY RECORDS (Record Of The Week) "In a word, BREATHTAKING!! " (((((
