Feb 26, 2016Ra Ra Riot have persevered, and despite one ill-advised detour into electronic music (2013’s Beta Love), they’ve only sharpened and mastered their sound: their fourth album, Need Your Light, might be their most artful and catchiest set yet.
-
Feb 17, 2016The 10-year-old band should be able to get a dance floor moving more than ever with these songs.
-
Feb 19, 2016Ultimately, Need Your Light is an ambitious, thrilling album, full of songs that aim to grab your heart as well as your ears.
-
Feb 18, 2016Need Your Light is a heck of a lot of fun while it lasts and, though there’s little to make you crawl back to it time and time again, it has that same appeal of flicking through a photo album and getting the rush of nostalgia for times long gone and, for that alone, it’s worth something.
-
Feb 17, 2016Need Your Light is certainly a step up from Beta Love, but Ra Ra Riot are missing the orchestral edge that originally set them apart from other groups in their genre, making it feel inessential despite being quite likeable.
-
Feb 17, 2016The results are mixed, surely, but not anything other than what they are.
-
Feb 19, 2016Following two discouraging albums, Need Your Light represents another stumble in the New Yorkers’ career. A disappointment.
