This thing is momentous; it’s as if they took the depressing air of Frightened Rabbit, swirled it with The National’s penchant for huge crescendos, and then executed it all with the bombast of a Killers’ album

You Know I’m Not Going Anywhere is, in essence, a rock record. But it is a rock record that asks for more, unafraid to scratch that little bit deeper

This is a fantastic record, and yet another reminder of how good this band are. Nothing seems out of place, not a single riff or beat is wasted. New styles are performed with vigour, and the band sound energised and refreshed. An essential release

Longtime Districts fans may well be surprised by the surfaces of You Know I'm Not Going Anywhere, but after a few listens it's clear this music has as much (or maybe more) that connects it to their past than that which separates it from their larger body of work

No Ripcord
What makes You Know I’m Not Going Anywhere frustrating is the knowledge that Grote has all the right ingredients (including Fridmann in this case), but somehow isn’t consistently stringing things together

Q
Hey Joy, the second track on The Districts' fourth LP, is a moment of near-perfection. It's a bar the rest of You Know I’m Not Going Anywhere never quite reaches, though, it comes close. Print edition only
