3/5

"The guitar sound is the most carefully handled element here: high gain, tightly gated, and cut so that fast alternate picking keeps its edges rather than turning into a single tone. That gating is what carries the album, because the arrangements are busy and the tempos rarely let up."

"The music is of course hard and heavy, as well as aggressive and brutal. And if that sounds like your thing, then you should give this a try."

"The music is really heavy, ancient thrash and death metal styles melted into a delicious cocktail. The riffing rips, with cool blitz solos, whirlwind drumming, and the vocals are a sick mix of old gruff thrash style with a big dose of Chuck Schuldiner growl."

"Boston has a long and rich history producing metal bands, including the likes of Converge and Hatebreed. But much of the New England scene was a mutation of the robust 80’s hardcore movement. Lately, there hasn’t been much of a metal scene beyond scattershot groups. Maidenhead are here to change that."

"Overall, this is a seriously substantial blast of heavy music, with the vocals providing some of the biggest surprises.

Anyone who enjoys contemporary thrash metal with touches of death metal should definitely give this album a listen."

9/10

"Maidenhead have gone & made a record that aligns w/ their ethos. Fast, aggressive, technical & gloriously old fashioned, Maximum Clonage is built for destroying speakers after repeated listens on maximum volume.

‍Treat yourself."

8/10

"All in all, MAIDENHEAD delivered a good one with album No. 2, and I have zero problem recommending Maximum Clonage to anyone looking for another dose of thrash/death metal fury. The future looks bright for this band, and I, for one, will be watching to see what comes next."

9.5/10

"MAIDENHEADs current album „Maximum clonage“ it's an absolute coincidence for me and I would like to thank the turmoil of the global internet for throwing this release in front of me. This mix of thrash and death metal from the early years is exactly what makes old Iron Maik forget the rust of his years. "

3.8/5

"Alright, Maidenhead is the new kid on the block, which means it should be bullied until it learns its place. However, Maximum Clonage showed way more quality than I expected. It’s an album that can easily be put on again."
