Oct 25, 2016There's not yet a band that can evoke the intangible nostalgia that the Radio Dept. do, but at least with this release we can be assured we don't need there to be.
-
Oct 21, 2016This is a darker, more direct take from a band that sees in pop music a place to distill their ideas.
-
UncutOct 17, 2016Despite these potentially dour themes, Running Out Of Love is far from a gloom-fest, couched as it is in disco and '80s-influenced electronica. [Nov 2016, p.35]
-
Oct 20, 2016It may even be their most consistently impressive and overall most cohesive record to date.
-
MagnetNov 16, 2016Easily the most vibrant they've ever sounded. [No. 137, p.59]

Oct 28, 2016What makes this record so refreshing is its unabashed ambition, the sound of a band rejecting indie-darling complacency for riskier, more mature territory. And the gamble more than pays off.

Dec 7, 2016The same basic sound is here, but a bit dancier and more electronic groove. Not nearly as much of the straight pop or shoegazey stuff.
