Nov 4, 2013The appropriately titled Tender Madness, more or less backs that notion [go big or go home] up with 12 emotionally charged slabs of Foster the People- and Killers-infused highway anthems, of both the fist-pumping and soul-searching varieties, that flirt with mainstream architecture yet retain enough of a ramshackle, post-slacker luster to appeal to fans of Weiss' previous outfit.

Nov 4, 2013Tender Madness is raw, yet alluring; it is unapologetically punk, with a better work ethic.
-
Nov 4, 2013Tender Madness is catchy and musically inviting, but it falls short of the mark the members have set for themselves.

Nov 4, 2013When the songs descend into repetitive strummed choruses and tired imagery (“Ain’t it so good to be young in America and watch the world burn”, on ‘If The Moon Rises’) you realise a bit of rock-star pomp could’ve livened things up a little.

Q MagazineJan 7, 2014Every track on Tender Madness sounds like it's been chiseled out of Mount Rushmore. [Jan 2014, p.124]

MojoNov 22, 2013Guaranteed to make fans of the underground feel queasy. [Dec 2013, p.92]

Nov 4, 2013It was too easy for Weiss and Presant to make a record like this: they’ve not challenged themselves, and they’ve certainly not challenged the listener.
