Reviews4 stars out of 5 -- "Melodies are doused in perky percussion and bashed pianos, with scratchy riffs, big basslines and scattered electronics thrown in to boot.", 3.5 Stars Out of 5 -- "Genre-Juggling, Bedroom-Dance-Floor Magic Cut with Moody-Boy Lyrics...", "There's a Fuzzy Warmth to 'torches'....This Is a Feel-Good Hit...", "Locomotive Live Beats and Star-Crossed Guitars Spar with Perpetually Pulsating Synths.", "Like the best dance parties, there are several opportunities to shake, sweat, and hug your neighbor." -- Grade: B, "The songs dodge and weave stylistically, avoiding perceived critical jabs by scavenging pop history for new old sounds.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "Slinky debut single 'Pumped Up Kicks' neatly splices Steve Miller Band's 'The Joker' with Peter Bjorn and John's 2006 whistlefest 'Young Folks'..."

Great album,great band!
I love this album! A lot of it is happy upbeat tunes,but some have darker undertones,like 'pumped up kicks',which was the only track I knew beforehand.Ive played it several times now,and love every track,and I'm considering buying it on vinyl too,and their other albums.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
