May 31, 2019It's another triumphantly jubilant album by a band who are second to none when it comes to that kind of thing.
-
May 31, 2019These ebullient songs are clearly a joy for both the listener and the band.

May 29, 2019Run Around The Sun retains much of that same flavour [of Strike A Match], continuing to base the duo’s agitated progressions at the core of their sound.

May 29, 2019It retains energy, but has enough twists and turns to still provide a consistently interesting landscape. They have made a beautiful confectionary, but one made with rigour, skill, and care. A joyful album, leaving me aching for a live performance.
