REVIEW OF SINGLE, “SOUND SPELL”:
"With a brief 3:00 run time, “Sound Spell” contains all the trademarks that defines the band’s music – synth heavy, drum pounding, guitar ringing retro alt-pop that is equally at home on a 90s indie playlist as it is here a quarter of the way into this century."
REVIEW OF EP, "LITTLE TROPHY::
"With their debut EP, Little Trophy, Hyaenas inspires listeners to get back on their feet, resist oppression, and fight for who and what they love. Some might argue that a band should try to quietly get on their feet before rattling off something so profound. But Hyaenas are sick and tired of listening to the rules."
REVIEW OF EP, "LITTLE TROPHY":
"Pure coolwave pop is the default on the EP, even when the guitars start out distorted and chugging at the beginning of “For the Birds”, and when echo-thump drums serve as the launching pad for “Another Level”.
