The Maccabees - Wall Of Arms

Review by Andrzej Lukowski

Wall of Arms is more Arcade Fire-like than Arcade Fire clone, and you could comfortably sling in a little Echo & The Bunnymen, Head On The Door Cure and Wolf Parade by way of further comparison. »

Limited copies come with a free art print. the maccabees return with their second album 'wall of arms'. 'wall of arms' retains all the energy and passion that made the maccabees fan favourites first time round but is a huge leap forward creatively. paired with the arcade fire producer markus dravs the album introduces horns and keys to their signature staccato guitar attack. the tonality of emotions explored and broad expanse of space the songs inhabit is breathtaking.
