Maruja (Knock - UK - Mar 23) - Knocknarea

17.03.2025

Nearly two years on, it now sounds even better. 'Kakistocracy' has really stewed in its own juices and taken on the stench of oloroso barrel and smoked guanciale to eclipse the brilliant 'Blind Spot'.

High class psychedelic-jazz-punk

1.Maruja (Knock - UK - Mar 23) - Thunder. 84
2.Maruja (Knock - UK - Mar 23) - Blind Spot. 97
3.Maruja (Knock - UK - Mar 23) - The Tinker. 73
4.Maruja (Knock - UK - Mar 23) - Kakistocracy. 98

Ranked in order:

* Maruja (Knock - UK - Mar 23) - Kakistocracy. 98
* Maruja (Knock - UK - Mar 23) - Blind Spot. 97
* Maruja (Knock - UK - Mar 23) - Thunder. 84
