Jul 14, 2011A great album but for someone's first lc! album they should listen to We are Beautiful, We are Doomed. While Romance is Boring is a more mature album it lacks the energy or We are Beautiful has.

Oct 23, 2011My favourite lc! album, different to their previous two albums in that the sound is more beefed up, but still contains the signature lc! sound and lyrics.

Aug 26, 2011One of my favorite albums. Great lyricism. Catchy music and lines and great and appropriate dissonance. The growth of this band gets me exciting for their upcoming album.

Romance, their third album in 24 months, is more slickly assured -- and far less twee -- than its predecessors.
-
Romance Is Boring doesn't eschew the sugar-high, too-clever angst of its predecessors altogether, but the band have learned how to vary their song structures, often opting for a darker, more atmospheric aesthetic.

Alternative PressRomance may be boring, but this ambitious triumph is anything but. [Feb 2010, p.96]
