JOHN MAUS lives in his birthplace of Austin, Minnesota. Whilst working towards his PhD in Political Science, he also composes music that taps into melancholic fantasy and affirms that we are all truly alive. Questing synthesizers, tensely strung bass lines and chasing drum machines providing the perfect backdrop for John's deeply resonant reverb-drenched vocal. Born in the decade of synth pop and sharing his birthday with George Frideric Handel, John started making music when Nirvana posters went up on every teenager’s wall. It’s this curious conflux of influences that partially helps to describe John’s music. It’s a world where the Germs jam with Jerry Goldsmith, Cabaret Voltaire relocate to Eternia and Josquin des Prez writes a new score for RoboCop. The confrontation of punk, the fleeting poignancy of 80’s movie soundtracks, the insistent pulse of Moroder and the spirituality of Medieval and Baroque music all find salvation in John Maus.

We Must Become The Pitiless Censors Of Ourselves breaks new ground for Maus. The shirt pulling and air punching of his impassioned live performance is finally captured in all its frenzied appeal alongside a tender inner space that wasn’t as apparent on his previous albums. It’s a record where promise takes the lead for the first time, providing a counterpoint to John’s default existential calling.

LOVE LETTERS 
(Bryant/Cifuentes)
Lyrics by Tracy Bryant
Tracy: Vocals, Guitar
Robert: Bass, Synth, Drums

I'm not gonna think about the times together
I don't wanna hear about the stormy weather
I thought I'd be no good without you
you know I'm alright without you
I can get by without you
I don't wanna know about the love letters
I don't wanna hear about no ever after
It doesn't matter how it was founded 
you say there's no way around it
that I better not take it for granted
I don't wanna hear the cries
I don't care about the times
I don't wanna know about the love letters
I don't believe in no ever after
