Jan 29, 2020It is a transformative synthpop journey exploring how our worst moments shape us as individuals for when we are at our best.
-
Jan 30, 2020‘Feel Life’ and ‘Steady’ resolve this darkness, both euphoric and knowing - and beautiful sonically - while ‘Blood Moon’ addresses feeling disappointed in yourself, and what you need to do to push through and make things right. ‘When We Stay Alive’ is emotionally raw, elegantly presented and at many parts a real tear-jerker. Wonderful stuff.

Jan 31, 2020When We Stay Alive is an illusion of a record but, once explored, an apparently endless labyrinth unfurls.
-
Jan 27, 2020Taken all together, When We Stay Alive is the sound of an individual and a band finding a new purpose, a new way to live and create – even if it is within the confines of familiarity.
-
Feb 3, 2020When We Stay Alive captures every nuance of Leaneagh's journey with unflinching honesty.
-
Mar 2, 2020When We Stay Alive at times unintentionally underscores that struggle through its weakest moments, but it also embraces the perseverance required to come out on the other side with a renewed sense of self. Poliça sound eager to take that next major step and embrace a fresh start, even if they don't seem to know exactly where to go from here.
-
Feb 4, 2020For a record born from a second chance at life, When We Stay Alive sounds disenchanted with its own message.
