Cause and Effect (Deluxe)
“Keane are probably the most unlikely nostalgia act to re-emerge for a new millennial audience over the last few years. Just watch their set from this year’s Glastonbury, or keep and eye on any late night house party shuffle through Spotify, and you’ll see 20-somethings remembering that the band’s 2004 debut album ‘Hopes & Fears’, the one their mums played to death in their cars, actually really ho”
Night Train
“Keane collaborating with rappers? On their fourth album, the erstwhile Brit-pop whimperers join forces with K’Naan on "Stop for a Minute," where the Canadian MC rhymes while Tom Chaplin belts out one of the band’s patented big, cresting choruses.

Under The Iron Sea
“Adult Alternative faves follow their surprise hit debut with another album of portentous clichés and earnest singing.”
