“The Last Season, the 2011 debut from Columbia’s The Sea Wolf Mutiny, is one of the most spectacularly accessible releases South Carolina has seen in quite some time. The dense, dramatic and sonically enormous pop-rock record bursts with achingly emotional hooks, gusting guitar swells and the catchy clang of reverb-soaked piano chords. It’s readymade for success without forsaking a genuine sense of artistic exploration, the kind of sweet spot that most often requires tremendous effort and forethought.”

“The Last Season isn’t just bottled lightning. It’s a diverse and engrossing wash of stormy emotions and experimental thunder, proving that The Sea Wolf Mutiny isn’t just copping a stylish look. It’s simply unearthed a talent that was within them all along — a point proven on The Apple Tree, a lush, Christmas-flavored EP it released in December. ”

“The Sea Wolf Mutiny provides the most resounding emotional highlight with “Heavy to Hold,” a lonely yet optimistic late-night piano ballad that’s augmented with rippling guitar effects and spacey reverb that reinforce the words’ romantic desperation.”

“One of the newest members of the bourgeoning Post-Folk genre...”

“The Sea Wolf Mutiny is a foursome out of South Carolina known for their gentle chord progressions and thoughtful song structure... remarkably distinct and unafraid of tastefully emoting.”

“you’ll be hard pressed to find a more honestly wrung-out performance.”

“The Sea Wolf Mutiny have a sound that’s akin to creative chaos set to music, all rough edges trimmed with beautiful melodies and designed dissonance disguised as not-so-perfect pop songs”
