Jul 6, 2016Ladyhawke’s long-awaited Wild Things is both a Tegan and Sara-worthy fever dream and a Little Boots-ian collection of expertly rendered synthesized-rock.
-
Jun 6, 2016Her most consistent album to date, and let-loose like never before, blimey it’s good to have her back.
-
Jun 6, 2016Ultimately, Wild Things is her most consistent and coherent effort to date, surpassing even her debut. It may have taken four years, but the end result has more than justified the wait.

MagnetAug 9, 2016Wild Things does its darndest to plug the electro-dance ice-pop void left by La Roux's sophomore let-down and the absence of new Robyn, Annie And Dragonette albums. [No. 133, p.57]

Q MagazineJun 29, 2016Wild Things is as likeable as it is cutting edge. [Aug 2016, p.113]
-
Jun 7, 2016For now, this album is a very bland, quite anonymous-sounding disappointment.
-
Jun 6, 2016Wild Things does get it right in parts, especially when the approach is that of slightly anxious pop.
-
Jun 13, 2016Before Wild Things, Brown scrapped an entire album that, from press indications, probably sounded a lot like Anxiety; neither she nor the people she said heard it was happy with the results, but one wonders if it was really that bad, or just not commercial and crowd-pleasing enough. Wild Things collapses over the strain to be both.

UncutJun 21, 2016There are too many blandly chipper moments that feel better suited to mobile phone ads than an album. [Aug 2016, p.77]
-
Jun 14, 2016Recorded in Los Angeles and produced entirely by Tommy English, most expressions of individuality have been removed and replaced with polished finesse. You are left with eleven songs that are entirely devoid of personality and the delivery only emphasises this.
-
Jun 6, 2016It adds up to a slick and competent, if uninspiring, production.
