  1. This is not a record of ballads for emo fans.... This album is a collection of proper songs.
  2. Orenda Fink and Maria Taylor use spare electronics, acoustic guitars and subtle strings to back up their arty lyrics about gentle lovers and broken hearts.
  3. Under The Radar

    A heart-rending and romantic album without being overly dramatic. [#5, p.98]
  4. Unfortunately, Hold on Love's more serene moments only weaken the lure of their more intricate and involved songs, ultimately underscoring the group's true strengths.

Their lyrics are tight and catch exactly what needs to be caught. Their voices blend together to create some of the most intoxicating sounds I've heard. This is one of the best bands out there right now. Their solo projects are also amazing. Full Review »
