InfluencesMany bottles of scotch, Syd Barret & pink floyd for the song stucture, led zep for the sound, neurosis for the hardness, cult of luna for the layers, "Le solitaire" by Eugène Ionesco for the bridge between our 1st & 2nd album, Dr. Freeman and his lobotomy patient "Sue Ellen Ionesco" for the storytelling, places we've been with Maudlin in Austria & Germany & Denmark & Slovenia & Italy & Spain & Holland & France & Czech Republic & Hungary & Belgium for the atmosphere that we bring in our songs...
Sounds LikeIn a genre overwhelmed with sad bands, MAUDLIN may be the saddest of them all. It's difficult to describe feelings we ain't familiar with. The sadness, anger and depression the band has gone through is reflected in the repetitive, yet very powerful song structure. Sometimes it feels like MAUDLIN only has one friend: their instruments. The relationship between their emotions and the songs they create is obvious. Lyrics are deeply affecting in their plaintive simplicity... it all could have been suicide letters. Scary and genius. Intense and sad. Powerful and emotional. Don't be mistaken, above all MAUDLIN is hard, very hard! Intensity the way it should be.

   About .MAUDLIN
The reviews of our "ionesco" album are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!

"…MAUDLIN does not only remind me of the dirt-squirting sound of pioneers like EARTHRIDE or DOWN, they mix it with the confused emotionality of MUSE, with the unpredictable outbreaks of the PIXIES and the cold darkness of CULT OF LUNA and NEUROSIS. This album is a topper, a difficult definable gallopp ride between different styles and feelings like depression, hope, pain and emptiness…"
by Christian @ www.metal.de

"…there is no other option then to remain fascinated from the very first note untill the last note & even longer this album brings…"
by Giusseppe Guilane @ www.babylonmagazine.net

"…MAUDLIN is more experimental and psychedelic orientated than DOWN, CROWBAR, MELVINS and without that much Southern influences, they are heavier than early NEUROSIS and harder than late ISIS. CULT OF LUNA might be the most meaningful guideline assistance…"
by Dirk Bengt @ www.burnyourears.de

"…and so Maudlin succeeds with their concept. Once again Belgium proves to raise the bar a little higher and I can’t wait to see how these guys will develop in the future…"
by Maurice @ www.asice.net

"…Another list this album is on, is that “Best Albums Of 2008?-list of mine…not because I feel this is indeed one of the best offerings within the genre, but because these guys are darn good at what they do, away from musical genre! That, and the fact that even after having listened to the album for a certain amount of times, and me needing to get along towards reviewing other band’s stuff, I’m still reluctant about closing this one off…"
by Tony @ www.concreteweb.be

"…NEUROSIS and CULT OF LUNA are the comparisons which can be expected, the ones which MAUDLIN must live by - a comparison, which they can easy fullfil, because this album convinces over the whole line, each musician will understands…"
by Lars Heitman @ www.metal-inside.de

"…Ionesco is dark like only their friends of CULT OF LUNA and MOUTH OF THE ARCHITECT can bring. You should risk to give this a try, because this album is without reinvention of the wheel nevertheless somehow refreshing. Or simply outstanding…"
by Omerta @ www.partyausfall.de

"...Friends of progressive, innovative & psychedelic sounds will have their true joy here!"
by Johannes @ www.hardkern.de

"…The musical experience of these six Belgians, who do not leave anything to the coincidence, is impressing…"
by ? @ www.pitfire.net

"...'Ionesco' ligt in het muzikale verlengde van Amen Ra en Cult Of Luna, maar door het gaspedaal af en toe een beetje dieper in te drukken, is de band er min of meer in geslaagd een eigen sound te creëren"
by Tom Hamelrijckx @ www.digg.be
