  1. 7.2 |   Gig Soup

    Easily their best album since turn of the 00’s, it seems as if Incubus have found form in tracks such as ‘Nimble Bastard’; ‘You are No Fun’; ‘Throw out the Map’; ‘Loneliest’ and ‘Undefeated’, but they aren’t breaking barriers with this release

  2. 6.0 |   Punk News

    Incubus sound comfortable in their own skin

  3. 6.0 |   All Music

    You've got a pretty solid Incubus record in your hands, albeit one that won't win over any of the group's detractors

  4. 5.5 |   Earbuddy

    It’s not as dreadfully boring as their last LP, If Not Now, When?, but it painfully lacks the playful, layered instrumentation of Light Grenades or A Crow Left of the Murder

  5. 5.0 |   Consequence Of Sound

    It’s not like stale arena bands traditionally recharge their songwriting 20 years on, but following a six-year sabbatical from full-lengths, it just seems like these particular alleged fun-havers would feel itchier to do something nutty

  6. 5.0 |   A.V. Club

    Incubus revives the power chords, but not the personality, of its heyday

  7. 4.0 |   The Guardian

    Nimble Bastard is a tidy chunk of driving alt-rock reminiscent of Kerbdog or Rival Schools. More like that and 8 might have been a little less second-rate

  8. 1.0 |   Sputnik Music (staff)

    Skrillex produced this album – you can't make this stuff up, people! – but he doesn't even have a negative affect because there's no music here to ruin, literally nothing present of enough substance that Sonny Moore could possibly make worse
