Critic Reviews

A.V. Club

In that regard, Arrow is the Bastards’ best album to date.

70
PopMatters

It’s an unabashed rock record, yet it seeks profundity and wonderment.

70
Consequence of Sound

While not exactly attempting to meet the band’s early catalog halfway, manages to serve as the most comprehensive and compelling Heartless Bastards release to date.

Pitchfork

Arrow is their crunchiest album since Erika Wennerstrom gutted the original trio in 2008 and rebuilt the Bastards as a quartet.
