”Listening to The Maggie’s Marshmallows, one is immediately struck by how talented this trio from Prague truly are. From lead cut ‘Waiting for the Dawn’ with its monophonic Tornadoes’ vibe, and whammy bar bended chords to ‘Chubby Bunny’, which has reverence to The Cynics written all over its buzz guitar onslaught the album rips and roars from one peak to the next. ‘No Friend of Mine’ is my personal favorite, it’s a take no prisoners, knife-fight of a song rendered with smoldering precision. One listen and you know they’re the real deal. Molded in the tradition of female fronted bands like the 5678’s, Indonesia’s Dara Puspita, they’ve been handed the keys to the garage kingdom and managed to inject their own sense of ethos pathos and logos.

“Here coaxed by Cynics/White Stripes producer Jim Diamond, and curated by the doyennes at Get Hip Rekkids, the album hits that sweet spot of hearing familiar sounds in creative new ways. If there is one band that I’ve heard as of late that might go a few rounds with The Cynics then I’d say this Czech trio stands a fighting chance. A few more albums under their belts and the Pittsburgh Jukebox heroes better watch their backs!”
