  1. 9.0 |   Punk News

    When your landlords or neighbors bang on the door to ask you to turn it down, invite them to the party you might otherwise be having by yourself

  2. 8.0 |   All Music

    It's a winning combination of past, present, and future that bodes well for !!!'s future making plenty more great albums like it as they continue to be one of the last great dance-punk bands of the '90s left standing

  3. 7.3 |   Pitchfork

    As ever, their dance music is both celebratory and unsentimental

  4. 7.0 |   Exclaim

    The songs are short and punchy, and nod to the anything-goes attitude that pervaded the jams sessions from which they were born

  5. 7.0 |   God Is In The TV

    An album choc full of talent, mixed with the occasional quality guest vocal and the result is a confident, rapturous joy of an album which will leave you aching from smiling too much. In other words

    Despite a few highlights, Shake the Shudder feels like a job

  10. 6.0 |   Q

    When the vocals spar and catch the tune just right, it all soars with a gospel-like wonder. Print edition only

  11. 5.8 |   A.V. Club

    There’s no reason not to throw on Shake The Shudder and dance it out, but like many fun-yet-hazy late nights, it doesn’t leave much of an impression afterward

  12. 4.0 |   The Skinny

    Awkward inconsistency makes Shake The Shudder reminiscent of a night out where, at half past 11, you realise that Red Stripe does in fact taste like shite, and you'd be better off tucked up in bed listening to Spotify

  13. 4.0 |   Under The Radar

    While there is nothing really special about it, there is nothing really that bad either, it's just disappointing

  14. 3.0 |   Clash

    After nearly two decades in the party-starting business, !!! still have the capacity to make some great records. It's just a shame that this isn't one of them
