CRITIC REVIEWS

musicOMH

The pair have successfully managed to retain the qualities that made them so engrossing first time round, despite putting more meat on the bones.

PopMatters

June Gloom is really an album that’s mostly killer, little filler—pretty much all to be found here is engaging and winsome, and one’s appreciation for the record grows with repeated listens.

AllMusic

The London duo's second album captures moody '90s noise-pop and the kind of partly sunny heartbreak that can actually feel pretty good.

80
The 405

In changing their approach to making music, Underwood and Costelloe have harnessed that potential which was in evidence a couple of years ago.

80
DIY

Debut ‘Lights Out’ was loved for its intimacy; ‘June Gloom’ will be loved for how big it sounds.

75
The Line of Best Fit

June Gloom marks another confident step forward in the band’s quest to live up to their name in the indie-rock landscape.

NME

Two years on, Big Deal have finally hired a rhythm section and as a result of this new, more traditional approach have morphed from mellow to muscular.
