Mau Maus were a British band (although there was an American act that shared the name) whose music - at least for the era represented here - had much in common with their homeland contemporaries like Discharge or GBH, but were strongly influenced by the US hardcore scene as well. In fact, the band's vocalist reminds me a great deal of Jack 'Choke' Kelly of Negative FX/Last Rights/Slapshot/Stars And Stripes fame, and the rest of Mau Maus aren't so far off that patented Boston sound either. Their later years would find them moving toward a more traditional '77-style UK punk aesthetic, of which you can hear a little of on the last several tracks included in this collection. It's appealing in its own right, but the focus of this disc rightly lies on their earlier and heavier EPs.
