  1. 7.0 |   Under The Radar

  2. 6.0 |   Exclaim

    Matt & Kim have put together a fun record, and in the pop game, that comes first

  3. 5.8 |   Consequence Of Sound

    Matt and Kim should maybe question the wisdom of eschewing the richness of their own wealth of experience in favor of whatever the kids are listening to these days

  4. 5.8 |   A.V. Club

    On New Glow, they’ve either finally dumbed things down too much, or simply reached the end of where this rudimentary songwriting can take them

  5. 5.0 |   All Music

    Matt and Kim were never great stylists or brilliant songwriters, but they made their music work through insane displays of energy and an almost indefatigable spirit. There is precious little of either on display here

  7. 4.6 |   Pitchfork

    New Glow may be Matt & Kim’s most polished album, but their songwriting has never been more amateurish

    26 minutes of same-old dance pop
