It seems that Hello Sadness is an album for the true fans

80
PITCHFORK

The buzz has long worn off of Los Campesinos!, but Hello Sadness is their fourth straight great album

80
CONSEQUENCE OF SOUND

Hello Sadness is a tightly focused album that also counts as the band’s poppy-est to date.

70
DROWNED IN SOUND

Hello Sadness is obviously more melancholic than anything LC have done so far, but thankfully far from being melodramatic.

60
POPMATTERS

Los Campesinos! sound tired at points here, and Gareth has lost a great deal of his wit and satirical edge in his wordplay.
