Loyalty to Loyalty

Album

Pop, Alternative, Rock

3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Cold War Kids attack their songs with unusual intensity, infusing even the most noirish, unsettling songs -- fractured narratives about hipster bohemia and suicide -- with a feeling of enchantment.", "The grit, grain and pastoral beauty of their debut is very much in effect here, with a lot more soul added for good measure, ensuring LOYALTY is a triumphant celebration of rustic elegance.", "Stunning and haunted....What makes it all cohere so beautifully is the songwriting, which is as sharp as the sound is blurry..." -- Grade: A-, 4 stars out of 5 -- "Song titles like 'Every Valley Is Not a Lake' and 'Something Is Not Right With Me' might sound like short stories, but the former is a bluesy jaunt through bar-hopping piano and the latter an inspiring burst of energy.", "'Against Privacy' opens the record with a sparse, slow-rolling statement of intent that nonchalantly revs to white with the furious ping and reverb of Jonathan Russell's guitar."
