Mar 19, 2019Their first album on a major label and the major label influence shows. Their sound is definitely more pop-oriented now and while that works out well for some songs, I find the second half of the album to be really lacking.

May 8, 2017TBH, this really made me sad. They took what was once a promising band that I thought that I would look forward to their albums for decades to come. Then they sold out and ATTEMPTED to go pop with their third album. Nothing noteworthy on this album, seriously nothing there.

Jul 20, 2021While still carrying some folk elements, Signs of Light strays for more pop-ish music, which the band doesn't excel at. This deviation in style it doesn't ruin the album, it defiantly proves that The Head and The Heart is better off in making folk music.

Dec 19, 2016Things work better when they balance the impulse to hulk things up with their natural traditionalist intimacy.

Dec 19, 2016It’s perfectly passable, but everything that marked The Head and the Heart out as potentially exceptional has been buried.

Dec 19, 2016The execution is inarguably impressive, but the Head and the Heart have made much better music with simpler technique, and Signs of Light is the sort of album that confirms a fan's worst fears about an indie act signing with a corporate label.
