    After a much needed hiatus, Two Door return with a fresh, new take on their music, that has helped them create their most unified sounding album to date.

    I bought this album several weeks ago and I already listened it in my car at least 20 times. Every single track is superb and fun to listen to. Just like their previous two albums. Clever, honest music full of energy. Love it!

    I don't know what people are on about, this LP was great! Probably the best album of 2016 for me. I enjoyed it more than Beacon, probably not better than their debut but im happy to see where the band goes next.

    OH MY GOD! This is absolutely WONDERFUL album! The sound, the verse, catchy rhythm! What do we need more? Absolutely NOTHING! As for me - it's the best album in 2016! Thank you, TDCC!

    Not a bad album at all, it's chock full of really good grooves that veer off the mainstream bullcrap that is happening right now. The problem is, it is quite experimental, which drives many people away from it. It sounds completely different from any of their other albums, which is refreshing, but look what happened to Keane after they tried something different.

    Dripping in falsetto and awash in synths, their latest attempt is painfully lacking in the refreshingly hyperactive guitar riffs that made their debut so memorable.

    There's nothing groundbreaking here, but these songs will surely be lots of fun to play live. [Dec 2016, p.115]

    With Gameshow, Two Door Cinema Club ultimately balance a growing pop maturity with a stylish strut worthy of Saturday Night Fever's Tony Manero.
