Pitchfork
6.5/10
The latest Strand of Oaks album has a sunnier outlook and a hedonistic streak, evoking Creation Records bands like Primal Scream and Oasis. But it never really adds up to a bold statement.
The Line of Best Fit
9/10
Strand of Oaks display a restless optimism tempered with a belief that the sun will always come up no matter how long your night has been.
The Independent
3/5
Also Nick Cave & Warren Ellis, Mind Over Mirrors, and Otis Taylor
Under The Radar
8.0/10
With Hard Love, the churning, confessional beauty of Strand of Oaks' last album, 2014's HEAL, is present, but there is an added ruthlessness.
Loud and Quiet
5/10
Strand Of Oaks, Philadelphia's Tim Showalter, follows-up 2014's 'HEAL' with new LP 'Hard Love' which sounds more like a compilation than an album.
