CMU Approved
Approved: Mazes (SNAP Of The Day)
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 21 April 2009
Mazes are responsible for the best two-minute pop song I’ve heard in ages, the inspiringly named ‘Bowie Knives’. Mixing tracks through a TV and recording on just a 4-track, it’s what Weezer would sound like if they roughed up their songs a bit.
It also – though it is admittedly stated in their influences column – sounds a helluva lot like a fuzzier Pavement, an offshoot of ‘Wowee Zowee’ that Stephen Malkmus could have recorded at home while J Mascis was passing through. Show dates are up on the link below, while the impressive London-based indie label Sex Is Disgusting have a 7″ pencilled for later in the year.
