4 stars out of 5 -- "The album's marriage of '80s synth pop, dance music and indie-ish jangle lends the New Order comparisons credence...", "On THE AGE OF FRACTURE, they’ve settled down and drawn out a solemn groove, furthering a sound indebted to bands like New Order and Depeche Mode...", "It’s focus is more personal than political....'The Natural World' is a very personal interpretation of understanding oneself in relation to the greater world."

Inspired by Princeton academic Daniel T. Rodger's book, the London band's third album is full of synth-heavy '80s post-punk hooks.
