The title track, with it's hooky sing-along chorus, is the albums highlight, though there are a few others that challenge for the spot. ~ Tim Sendra Professional Reviews: Spin (p.68) - "It's fun, if slightly jarring, to hear this infectiously hyperactive indie crew stretch out a little." Alternative Press (p.96) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Los Campesinos! take a huge leap forward artistically, hot-wiring classic college rock with indie techno, vintage soul and herky-jerky post-punk." Billboard (p.32) - "[T]he members of the seven-piece rock act Los Campesinos! expand their musical range by utilizing more instrumental and melodic variety than found on the band's 2008 sophomore effort..." Paste (magazine) (p.61) - "[A] swirling mixture of radio noise and catchy choruses, ROMANCE reiterates the point of both musical and emotional growth..." Clash (magazine) - "[T]he band bring to their latest effort a much darker atmosphere, with similarly desperate lyrics....Excellent."
