8.0 | The Scotsman

An endlessly likeable pile of slacker rock
Read Review
8.0 44170
8.0 | All Music

Delivers all of the brilliant power pop worship that we've all come to love from JEFF the Brotherhood, and if the album isn't able to kick off your summer, nothing will

8.0 | Art Rocker

They have the power yet to keep rock fans happy

7.0 | Blurt

The production may be a little cleaner, but the same knack for great fuzzed-out ditties is still there

7.0 44168
7.0 | Rolling Stone

A little more stoner-y than last year’s speed-crazed We Are the Champions, and it’s got a good-natured sense of slacker irony

7.0 | Pitchfork

Their version of celebration rock

7.0 44229
7.0 | Consequence Of Sound

Though it was the title of their last record, it seems more appropriate to definitively say here that JEFF The Brotherhood are, indeed, the champions

7.0 | Pop Matters

Much of Hypnotic Nights will have you wanting to raise a plastic cup of beer in the air and say, “Yeah!"

6.7 | The AU Review

There are three or four standout tracks on this record, and I'm finding it hard to think of a situation where I would put this record on in its entirety

6.7 | A.V. Club

Even at just 10 songs Nights feels repetitive and even leaden at times
Read Review
6.0 47083
6.0 | The Guardian

The guitars are set to buzz, the drums bang, and the odd squiggle of synthesiser offers a dab of colour

6.0 | NME

Giddy garage rock
Read Review
6.0 48819
6.0 | Uncut

Dan Auerbach produces the Nashville duo's major-label debut with mixed results. Print edition only
5.0 44171
5.0 | No Ripcord

Most of Hypnotic Nights already sounds worn out
