Oct 4, 2012In 2012, the album is still an impressive achievement and cements the trio's place as the absolute best band of shoegaze revivalists operating.

Oct 4, 2012With nothing masking itself as filler here, it would be difficult to trim anything off without Mauve losing any of its impetus or impact. Indeed there's very little negative to say.

Oct 4, 2012With strong, fully realized statements such as Mauve, Ringo Deathstarr are making a strong case for being one of the most vital bands in shoegaze today.

Oct 4, 2012'Mauve' isn't a bad album. It's competently made, it's mixed pretty well. It's done well. But it's been done before, and better.

Jul 7, 2020Great album. I think personally this is one of the best shoegaze albums of all time and that Ringo Deathstarr deserves much more acclaim.
