Record CollectorOct 15, 2025Insanely rich with ideas, hooks, smart artifice and real emotion, From The Pyre is a feast of giddy raptures. [Nov 2025, p.102]
-
Oct 15, 2025All in all, The Last Dinner Party have done it again - ‘From The Pyre’ is set to be on repeat well into the new year.
-
Oct 17, 2025From the Pyre is a bold, spellbinding second album, one that actually eclipses Prelude to Ecstasy not by outshining it, but by adding more depth to their oeuvre. The Last Dinner Party no longer sound like a band proving themselves. They sound like one who already has.
-
Oct 15, 2025While Prelude might feature thicker arrangements and traffic more in classic pathos, with Pyre, TLDP are as sublime and theatrical as ever.
-
Oct 17, 2025It’s an accomplished listen – still as deliciously dramatic as ‘Prelude To Ecstasy’, fleshing out their world more and more with daring, dashing songs of true depth.
-
Oct 16, 2025These are all big-hearted songs dreamed up in small rooms, and painted in bold Broadway strokes.
-
Oct 17, 2025It’s only when the band restrain their instincts for maximalism and melodrama – as on the beautiful (and still stompingly anthemic) I Hold Your Anger, a brooding exploration of maternal instinct – that the Last Dinner Party’s erudite, elaborate pop is able to really sing.
