Jun 8, 2016Very disappointing sophomore album. Lacks the creativity and imagery offered in the first album which made them unique. The whole thing is far too slow, making a half hour album feel like it takes all day to finish. Slow songs were good in the first album because of the pace of there songs, too many in a row makes the album boring and dull

May 31, 2016Quieter and striking a more somber tone than their Grammy-nominated first record, it sounds as if the band went out of its way to tone down the catchiness of their initial offering. But the softer focus put the lyrics front and center and that’s, in part, what separates The Lumineers from the slew of bands that came after trying to replicate the success of “Ho Hey”.

Apr 15, 2016If the Lumineers debut record was a representation of their metaphorical college years, Cleopatra is definitely their more mature, but confused, post-grad understanding of fame.

Apr 14, 2016There's something admirable about the album's solemnity: the Lumineers are on a quest to be taken seriously, and even if they overplay their hand, the earnestness is ingratiating.
