Sep 16, 2013Their pop-rock noir is at its best on end-of-the-night anthems such as Hearts Like Ours and the suitably crashing Rolling Waves, or when it puts its sheeny spin on the xx's minimal house (as on Waltz).
-
Sep 16, 2013In minor contrast to the band's previous effort, the moments of pared-down instrumentation here seem to offer a necessary respite from the intensity, providing necessary moments of calm as we anticipate the next joyous sonic wave.
-
Sep 16, 2013It’s a glorious return from one of 2010s most talked about bands that deserve to be talked about all over again.
-
Sep 16, 2013When it all comes together, In Rolling Waves is a thrilling, melodramatic ride through the regions where pop, electro and alternative rock crossover, and finally meet.
