Clash
It’s hard not to approach this record with certain expectations of how it should or could sound given the bands that Banks, Barrick and Kaufman have played in before. Surrender those, and what you have is the first songs from a new band, delivering a bold and surprising statement of purpose and intent

Under The Radar
Much like your favorite pair of relaxed-fit jeans, broken in over time for a comfortable, casual aesthetic, the complex character of Muzz gradually unfurls into a terrifically cool album that should be wholly appreciated with repeated plays

Mojo
There are a lot of moments when - sleeves rolled up, top button undone - it sounds as if they're pouring out their hearts to the same bartender as The National. When they get the detailing right, though, it flies. Print edition only
