    A superb album. Hurts at the top of their game. The highlights: Slave to Your Love, Somebody, Redemption, All I Have to Give.

    Fantastic album! Absolutely the best music I've ever heard. Music, voice - everything merges together and takes you somewhere far away from reality! The best work of the guys for all time!!!

    For me it is the best album ever. I can call this album "Faith" a roller coaster. You plunge into darkness, but in the end of swe the light. The album is listened to as a whole, even though each of me is unique. Each song tells a different story. Hurts have written music where everyone can recognize themselves. And the lyrics of the songs penetrate right into the soul...

    Selection of Hurts best emotions and feelings from previous 4 albums and of course something new packed in deep, heavy, melancholic package.

    I'm really excited by the fact how Theo and Adam opened up and how they talk about different human feelings, states of mind. They remind us that feeling broken is okay, but moreover there's still a way to stand up again and however dark everything feels now, it will get better. Thank you

    An utterly sublime, inspiring and soul-wrenching journey through the darkest places of the human condition, and out in to light. A complex and brilliant musical accomplishment with soundscapes that can be visualised, mixing different genres and a phenomenal diversity of sounds. There is something new to discover at every new listen even after listening multiple, multiple times! The lyricsAn utterly sublime, inspiring and soul-wrenching journey through the darkest places of the human condition, and out in to light. A complex and brilliant musical accomplishment with soundscapes that can be visualised, mixing different genres and a phenomenal diversity of sounds. There is something new to discover at every new listen even after listening multiple, multiple times! The lyrics are frequently works of poetic genius that are descriptive and raw. The album is an absolute treasure for old fans, with an incredible amount to offer new fans across all genres, and I dearly hope new fans find it. Listen - really LISTEN and take it in to appreciate the subtleties and sheer artistry that has gone into every aspect of this album. Nothing easy is ever worthwhile, and there is a tremendous catharsis in really spending the time and effort in fully appreciating this work. The reward is an exquisite mirror for the soul! It's all the more impressive knowing that all artwork and design for the lyric videos and different listening formats was also produced by the band. Brilliant, shockingly underrated, and rightfully adored!… Expand

    It’s when the pop sheen is dropped and they head in a twitchy, darker direction that Hurts are at their most effective.

    Faith is a very, very good album – most likely their best since their debut.

    Despite the fair amount of low-key experimentation on display, Faith still feels, at its core, wonderfully familiar. This isn't an album where Hurts push to subvert their own sound, but there's clearly plenty of inspiration behind it -- divine or otherwise.
