“As far as debut records go, ‘Sink Your Teeth in My Brain’ is mightily impressive. Expansive and nuanced, this two-track EP sees Canadian outfit Museums indulging into indie minimalism with ‘Fieldfare’, then switching to hidden psychedelia and a certain lo-fi charisma. Crucially, the distortions are all tame, yet sometimes punchy. Follow-up ‘Sink Your Teeth’ is more earthy and raw, leaving electronica behind for a healthy slice of shoegaze energy.”

“Fieldfare is a beautiful blend of past and present, showcasing Museums’ ability to craft timeless, evocative music.”
- Last Day Deaf
« Cette montée en puissance transforme la chanson d’une ballade douce et mélodique en une pièce énergique et percutante, démontrant la capacité du groupe à manipuler les dynamiques et à jouer avec les attentes de l’auditeur. »
- Iggy Magazine
“Most bands would kill to be able to release this pair of aces as their first offering, but as great as they are, it feels as if Museums have effortlessly thrown these songs out as if making such succulent music came easily to them. Maybe it does; perhaps they just make it look that way.”
- David Franklin, Big Takeover
