III

I had high hopes for this album, even after not really caring for the early released “Gloria”. But this album is really just depressing. The Lumineers are wonderfully talented musicians, but this album just doesn’t sing to my soul.

Am I the only person who thinks that?!?

So good

I love these lame reviews saying this is unoriginal, uninspired, unhappy music. It’s not meant to be happy. It’s an album about addiction you morons. It’s their most inspired album yet. A story of 3 generations of people dealing with addiction and the effects on their family. It’s so real. So emotional. The short film for the album is brilliant. There’s never been an album like this.

This album seems like a shift from some of their more upbeat songs that play well before an audience into areas of reflection, exploring broken lives at a personal and societal level. At times, the songs almost feel like the demo version, with minimal instrumentation and vocals. It's a good album, hence 4 stars, but seems not as wide ranging as their first 2 albums.

So glad for another album, love your sound so much.

Cinematic masterpiece

Truly amazing.... first full album I'll buy in years

Great Great Great!!!

For all those thinking that the Lumineers need to change their music, please please don’t. I fell in love with your music, not the potential of what your new music can bring. Death Cab changed from their roots. So did OAR. Now the Head and the Heart. I don’t listen to any of these three’s new music.
