CRITIC REVIEWS

70
Drowned in Sound

Anthems is a confident, solid and ultimately hugely likable debut;

60
PopMatters

Although Anthems earns all of the aforementioned praise for being a thoroughly thrilling affair, it still suffers from a concrete sense of sameness and familiarity.

NME

It’s a pity, then, that the album itself consists of 11 tracks of unimaginative pub rock that, at best, rips off The Darkness (‘Bury My Bones’ again), and at worst comes across like a bunch of teenagers in their first band who wrote the first dumb chorus that came to mind and stuck with it
