  1. 9.0 |   No Ripcord

    The album’s sound, though certainly well honed, still manages to gush energy and excitement even at its slowest tempos.

  2. 8.0 |   Spin

    Celebrates the joys of being young and alive: drinking, snogging, and writing three-chord odes to drinking and snogging.

  3. 8.0 |   The Guardian

    Four albums in, and the Thermals are still writing the same song. Fortunately, it's a perfectly good song.

  4. 8.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    This album is an all-rounder; a crowd pleaser; but what it lends to the mainstream it doesn’t take from The Thermals’ convictions

  5. 8.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    Uncanny knack for conjuring downcast poptastic gems.

  6. 7.8 |   Pitchfork

    His [Hutch Harris] band's fourth full-length, he takes advantage of a newfound musical maturity, buffing his fuzzy riffs into polished power-pop, which finally casts a much-deserved spotlight on his lyrics.

  7. 7.0 |   PopMatters

    The sound they make has an energy that swells in your chest, that tenses in your limbs and quivers in your gut. And that feeling is timeless.

  8. 7.0 |   Blender

    The Thermals still blaze three-chord thrash like champs, but they’ve realized that speed kills if you don’t figure out where you’re going.

  9. 6.0 |   NME

    No-one could accuse this Portland trio of skimping on sarcasm - even if it is the kind of sarcasm that dribbles likes a student rallying against capitalism as he pulls in to a McDonald's drive-thru.

  10. 4.0 |   musicOMH

    Generic, toothless pop-punk.
