    The mood here is still adolescent but with a growing emotional and musical sophistication. [Jul 2015, p.115]

    Listening to this album is rather like a lucid experience that you never want to wake up from--and it is Sankey and Warmsley’s most impressive record to date.

    The best love songs are the ones that make you want to dance and cry all at once; and Bad Love has them in spades.

    Bad Love takes a less romantic view of life, but sonically, the retro filter is still very much on. [Aug 2015, p.81]

    The most frustrating aspect of the record is that they are obviously trying hard to find their own sound and they almost get there.

    Bad Love has just too many things going on.

    The lack of specificity blunts the potential trauma of Bad Love’s heartbreak, the trauma that its well-apportioned, dramatic music demands.
