    Golden provides Lady Antebellums tracks to shine like gold and be enjoyable to listen. It could have some few changes here and there, but who cares! It's already good!

    Despite the presence of utterly infectious single “Downtown” and the jangly “Better Off Now That You’re Gone,” the first half of Golden is a little too polished, as if the trio couldn’t escape the pull of Own the Night’s gravitas.

    An overall sedate, relatively predictable album.

    The mulch-platinum country trio's fourth LP is a refreshing return to form after the dull post-"Need You Now" phase of their career. [10 May 2013, p.67]
