User Album Review
Reviewed by the Independent UK
While they don’t try to paint themselves as try-hard intellectuals, songs are littered with references to Shakespeare (“Loveblood”), and Plato (“Flame”); the latter with lyrics that refer to the philosopher’s Allegory of the Cave and apply it to the modern day, how social media, politicians, terrorism and consumerism cast dark shadows that blind those who fall prey to them.
That's not to say this is a pessimistic album, though – for the most part the songs are full to bursting with youthful melodies that lift the weight off the more serious of topics. So you can think seriously about the state of the world and have a dance at the same time.
