The press release for Maeven boasts that the band
have already played shows at premier venues in the
UK, toured the States, shared rehearsal rooms with
MeatLoaf and played at a pre-tour party for Guns
N' Roses, but in all honesty who gives a fuck about
all that as I for one don’t, it’s all
about the music in my eyes, not who you have toured
with or shared a dressing room with, none of that
is going to make your music sound good, but it seems
like these girls don’t need any help at making
their music sound good as they fucking rock. Most
all female membered groups get shot down before
they even start to try and gain a name for themselves,
but these girls sure know how to write good songs
and they go all out with guitars blazing, which
is surely going to help bring them the success they
deserve.
Maeven have already put the finishing touches
to their self titled debut album, however they
are holding off releasing the album until the
2nd February so they get the mad Christmas rush
out the way and get their album out in the New
Year to start 2009 off in true style.
The album starts with 'Queen Of Hearts', a song
that is fast and fun, packed with punk rock style
guitar riffs and ever so catchy poppy punk female
fronted vocals. 'Russian Roulette' is more of
a jam-tastic song, with the girls rocking out
in massive jamming sessions making as much powerful
noise as possible, these girls sure know how to
play their instruments and they play them with
a powerful punch.
There are ten tracks on the album and they all
run in an energetic and catchy way, it’s
hard to pick out a favourite track from the album
but I will note that my favourite tracks are out
of the extremely fast guitar riff packed 'Do Or
Die', and the rocking number that is 'Take To
The Skies', just check out the opening guitar
riffs to find out what I mean.
If you like fast underground punk rock influenced
bands then give Maeven a listen, they are an exciting
four piece all female band from South Yorkshire
who love The Ramones and The Backyard Babies which
you will clearly be able to tell once you have
gave their self titled album a listen.
4/5
