CD Reviews

This Definitely Isn't Ruined
The Laughing World | Brisbane, Australia | 05/21/2002
(3 out of 5 stars)

"You're Gonna Ruin Everything is the second album to be released by Portland emo-rockers The Maroons. For a quick reference point, members of this band have played in/with The Jicks, Heatmiser, Elliot Smith, The Fastbacks and many more, and whilst there is definitely traces of the influence some of these bands (particularly Elliot Smith), The Maroons tend to sound more like the present crop of indie up and comers, particularly Death Cab For Cutie. The tunes on this album are all catchy, differing in pace between empathetic ballads and melodic powerpop tunes. The instrumentation itself is softly beautiful, and is complimented by frontman John Moen's gorgeous falsetto vocals. Picks of the crop include 'Lonely Summer', 'Swimmers' and 'Ruin Everything'. Whilst it is unfair to judge The Maroons based on their credentials, they have come up with a fine album that will hopefully be able to carve the band an identity independent of their illustrious pasts."
