Mar 9, 2015Though there are portions of We Are Undone which could definitely be considered unhinged, nothing here suggests they’re even close to being undone at this stage.
-
MojoFeb 18, 2015Occasionally, the histrionics and faux-biblical warnings of this guitar-drum duo tread a fine Spinal Tap line, but they do its majestically they can only be admired. [Mar 2015, p.95]
-
Feb 5, 2015We Are Undone, masters the sinking feeling of sharing a sweaty car ride or claustrophobic interrogation room with the bad cop/existential mindfuck cop team of Marty Hart and Rust Cohle.
-
Feb 5, 2015For two guys that have been playing together for over 20 years, they manage to retain their band's sound on We Are Undone while also pushing it forward.
-
Feb 3, 2015Side B of We Are Undone calms down with a few bewildered ballads, but ultimately, Two Gallants’ return marks the most polished release of their long and diverse 13-year career.
-
Alternative PressFeb 2, 2015A sprawling, diverse affair. [Mar 2015, p.94]

Feb 2, 2015It is a little daunting at first approach, but stylistic breadth and dynamic shifts make up for the stark brutality of their sound.
-
Feb 2, 2015In short, another first-rate album from a group that keep adding new facets without ignoring their past.

Feb 2, 2015In its often inchoate roar, We Are Undone bears little resemblance to the laser-focus punk-blues of their earlier work. The songs just aren't as good. The most satisfying callback to Two Gallants' halcyon, mid-'00s prime comes in the album's second half.
-
Jan 30, 2015Two Gallants’ rulebook may be dusty, weathered and well-worn, but there’s a familiarity to what they’re doing that can’t help but make We Are Undone a thoroughly enjoyable listen.
-
Jan 30, 2015With We Are Undone, Two Gallants have created an album that is enviable in its quality and consistency.
-
Q MagazineJan 29, 2015We Are Undone is just a little too well put together to convince. [Mar 2015, p.118]
-
UncutJan 29, 2015Two Gallants can swagger and rage like The Black Keys, but they can also find moments of ambient bliss to complement songs of helplessness and regret. [Mar 2015, p.82]
-
Jan 29, 2015Stevens and Vogel have been playing together for almost 22 years now, if you can believe that, and We Are Undone is a fine addition to their catalogue.

Jan 29, 2015It’s nice to hear the pair experimenting with their sound and trying to do something new, but it’s unfortunate that the quality of the song writing has seemed to suffer as a result.
