    Age of Indignation is a convincing and credible advance, and September Girls return with their songcraft finely honed.

    With fire and fury in their bellies, September Girls manage to keep their balance and keep pushing on into ever darker territory.

    By letting their political frustration run away with them, they’ve carved out their own identity and worn it on their sleeves; the results are engrossing.

    At times, the heaviness of both the production and material weighs a little too heavily, begging for the kind of sunny pop touch the band has proven capable of, but ultimately, Age of Indignation is a significant artistic leap forward for the band.

    The lyrics cover some heavy subjects--feminism, Catholicism, corrupt Irish institutions-- so it's a pity that the hopelessly muddy production means that they might as well be singing in Icelandic. [May 2016, p.79]

    There is too little variety on show and the lack of breathing space is more likely to induce mild claustrophobia than any genuine excitement. [May 2016, p.118]
