"On their debut mini-album Midlands rockers Max Raptor have put together a set of confident, visceral and vital sounding punk-drenched alternative rock tunes that drip youthful exuberance and showcase huge potential. At their best on ‘The King Is Dead’, ‘Beasts’ and ‘Patron Saint (Of Nothing)’ the fiery riffage, measured aggression and boundless energy offers enough to suggest that, by the time their debut album proper drops, we could well have a UK answer to someone like Billy Talent on our hands. If that’s a lot of pressure to heap on a band this young, it’s only because we’re sure they can handle it. " Rocksound

"Now here’s a UK troupe that shows promise in spades. Hildamay’s
gruff and powerful delivery is rather reminiscent of mighty Gainesville punk stalwarts Hot Water Music, while there are healthy nods towards Glassjaw and Thrice here too. With promising influences, ‘We Loved, We Lost’ improves as it progresses, with gravelly vocals sailing over power guitar lines and soaring melodies, providing would-be anthems for a potential wall of fists raised skyward. Despite getting off to a shaky start, it serves as an impressive debut in terms of this Sidcup quintet’s future. " Rocksound
