    They've broken out of the pop-punk underground not by illuminating the dark corners of young-person romance but by crafting songs that make the rituals of teenhood feel like scenes in a Zac Efron movie.
  2. The New York Times

    Its self-titled debut was pop-emo at its dimmest, but Love Drunk is, in places, a pleasant improvement, with the band’s brattier instincts tamped down.
  3. The Boston Phoenix
    63
    When it's not ripping off Panic, Love Drunk seems to be catering to other mainstream audiences and the hipster crowd.... But once you get past all that, you'll find a few solid pop-rock tunes here.
  4. All Music Guide

    This is a much better record than their debut--and that in itself is an impressive feat.

    I loved their first album and eagerly anticipated this one- Severe disappointment. So overproduced and polished, it's just too fake. Go download Hero-Heroine and you'll hear the real BLG, not this plastic version of them… Expand
