  1. 10.0 |   Spin

    Red Mile is a disarmingly earnest exercise in philosophizing, its dense meta-ness more outlined with every listen

  2. 8.7 |   Northern Transmissions

    Red Mile is a whirlwind, and Crack Cloud clearly enjoyed themselves whipping it up

  3. 8.0 |   All Music

    Red Mile is dense and knowingly constructed, with the same white-glove sensibilities of a band like Broken Social Scene applied to messy, street-level punk anthems

  4. 8.0 |   The Guardian

    The Canadian indie-garage-rockers take the mickey out of pop, punk and the stories we tell ourselves, but strong feeling outweighs the cynicism

  5. 8.0 |   Dork

    ‘Red Mile’ is Crack Cloud at their most adventurous, crafting a record that rewards repeated listens and possibly a few therapy sessions

  6. 8.0 |   Far Out

    At only eight tracks in duration, however, Red Mile certainly leaves the listener wanting more, so, hopefully, we will not have to wait another two years for the follow-up

  7. 7.0 |   Uncut

    At times they sound as if they are seeking to recreate The Clash, before suddenly erupting into jagged film-score strings. Print edition only

  8. 7.0 |   God Is In The TV

    It might not be up in your face quite so much, but the more mature sound will stand over time as a turning point in the group’s career
