Album Review

Royal Blood are an English band that have around 2 million monthly listeners. ‘How Did We Get So Dark?’ is the bands second album coming 3 years after their debut album ‘Royal Blood.’ Their sound has mostly stayed the same between both album releases but has changed slightly.

‘How Did We Get So Dark?’ isn’t given enough or as much praise as their debut album however it sticks to the bands style and some songs really stand out. The album features ten songs and lasts 34 minutes.

Favourite Song

My favourite song off of the album is Lights Out. The reason for this is because I like how the song sounds and how powerful it is. I also really like Don’t Tell because it is more of a sinister sounding song.

Least Favourite Song

My least favourite song is Where Are You Now? The reason for this is genuinely because I listened to it the least and I feel like its slightly out of place in the album, it does fit just not as well as the others.

Further Recommendation

I would recommend their debut album ‘Royal Blood.’
