  1. 8.0 |   Prefix

    Red Night is music for city dwellers, the disbelievers, those who aren’t quite sure of their place within the concrete wasteland

  2. 7.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    A string of solid tunes
    Read Review

  3. 7.0 |   All Music

    While some of Red Night's songs might still be a little too insular for their own good, the album still finds the Hundred in the Hands coming into their own and expanding their identity at the same time

  4. 7.0 |   Rave Magazine

    Increasing numbers of young synth bands are taking on the shoegaze sound of the early ‘90s as a reference point, and if the end product is as good as this, then I say keep it coming

  5. 6.0 |   Bowlegs

    Without the presence and sex appeal of contemporaries of Zola Jesus and Austra, this feels a little damp

  6. 6.0 |   NME

    They've paid less heed to the well-thumbed manuals and spruced things up

  7. 6.0 |   Q

    Derivative? Certainly. Mesmerising? Definitely. Print edition only

  8. 5.0 |   Spin

    Claustrophobic dream-pop darkness doesn't compensate for the lack of actual pop this time around

  9. 5.0 |   Pitchfork

    The kind of folktronic coffeeshop fare that got called futuristic so often before the turn of the century, but that just ended up being the sound of then instead of now

  10. 5.0 |   Consequence Of Sound

    If The Hundred in the Hands’ self-titled debut reflects an idealized vision of how fantastically fun it is to be in New York City at night, then Red Night is the subway ride back home at 4 a.m.

  11. 4.0 |   State

    Singer Eleanor Everdell has always sounded inflated, now she just sounds showy
    Read Review

  12. 4.0 |   DIY

    A passable if disappointing montage of mid-tempo electro-pop that flirts dangerously close to dull trip-hop
