    Potential album of the year. Not only is every song a potential single on their own, as a whole, the record tells a story. They didn't have to but they did that!

    This is an interesting one. Although I like most of the songs from their first album better as individual songs (I love punk.); I like this album better than the former. The album is much more cohesive and refined; and awesome to listen to as a whole. I've seen people complaining that they wanted another punk album, rather than the more alternative rock/pop punk direction this one took;This is an interesting one.

I've seen people complaining that they wanted another punk album, rather than the more alternative rock/pop punk direction this one took; and it's fine if they prefer that; however, I think it's not fair to judge the album based on what you wanted it to be. I wanted another punk album; but the band don't owe me that just because I want it. They can put out whatever they want; and if you don't like it, just don't listen to it.… Expand

    With Sparse arrangements and songs that are never less than smart, How Do You Love? is an album for lovers than fighters and for anyone with a little romance in their heart, this is a doozy. [17 Aug 2019, p.55]

    Fifteen tracks stretches them too far, though, and on the likes of Fog, their woahs sound tired, and it becomes apparent that these are pretty empty musical calories.

    Part of the fun of listening to How Do You Love? is following the narrative that unfolds throughout, as so much of the album’s smartness lies within the precise evolution that occurs from one track to the other. Unfortunately, though, it is impossible to alert the world that the album is perhaps best listened to in order the first time around.
