  1. 9.0 |   The Music

    Refusing to be a sidenote in musical history, Klaxons have quietly returned with the most brilliant noise of their entire career

  2. 7.0 |   Clash

    ‘Love Frequency’ sounds like a blended milkshake of ‘Experience’-era Prodigy and The Rapture, spiked with your upper of choice
    Read Review

  3. 7.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    Love Frequency might not be enough on its own to lift us from the doldrums of EDM - but it’s always refreshing to hear dance music with a human heart at its core
    Read Review

  4. 7.0 |   NME

    While it is maddeningly catchy in places and well put together, its defining characteristic is a conservative streak that sits strangely with this most anarchical of bands
    Read Review

  5. 6.7 |   Consequence Of Sound

    The underlying messages are profound, yet their depth does nothing to detract from a more superficial connection with the left-field electronic beats
    Read Review

  6. 6.5 |   The 405

    If you live by the doctrines of Prodigy, or still pine after Pendulum, Klaxons' new LP will be right up your alley

  7. 6.5 |   Beardfood

    Love Frequency punches you in the chin with its stratospheric ambitions
    Read Review

  8. 6.0 |   Digital Spy

    Triumphs in being more than a hangover from nu-rave nostalgia, it fails to ever spectacularly take off
    Read Review

  9. 6.0 |   The Arts Desk

    Their lyrics often step away from the usual pap, dipping into LSD-speak, and those punchy falsettos are on sparkling form
    Read Review

  10. 6.0 |   The Guardian

    Love Frequency lacks a song that really pulls you along with it into those higher planes of emotion that Klaxons obviously inhabit daily
    Read Review

  11. 6.0 |   The Observer

    The album works better when they retreat into more esoteric regions, as on The Dreamers
    Read Review

  12. 6.0 |   Mojo

    Feels overly polished and not entirely convincing. Print edition only

  13. 5.5 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    Love Frequency isn’t a terrible album, but at times it does feel terribly unimaginative
    Read Review

  14. 5.1 |   Pitchfork

    Love Frequency isn’t a complete disaster, if only because the new, chastised, and chaste Klaxons aren’t really capable of doing anything that could inspire that sort of animus

  15. 5.0 |   musicOMH

    There simply isn’t enough variation, with the overwhelming presence of Righton’s one dimensional vocals lacking allure after a few tracks and the invariable electronica also doing little to excite or surprise
    Read Review

  16. 5.0 |   Uncut

    It’s well done, but the price of reinvention has been the band’s personality. Print edition only

  17. 4.0 |   The Digital Fix

    The final siren has sounded - now go stick Myths Of The Near Future on and remember what was promised
    Read Review

  18. 4.0 |   The FT

    Polished electropop, all fey vocals and shiny beats, less chaotic than before but uninspired
