4.5 superb | rufous | February 21st 18 | definitely an unpopular opinion, but i think this album is much better than their previous record. At least now they sound more interesting than any average post-punk band.

3.0 good | TheManMachine | March 17th 18 | On one hand it's swell to see Ought divagate some from their preceding post-punk apery, on the other kinda quashin' the dissonance tends to trim the propulsion, the tunes, the catchy catchphrases. Structures knottier but shakier, Darcy's sarcasm-n-solicitude converted to a calmer crooner, still good for slyly guiding you through a gratifying buildup. And they're rendered beautiful on a centerpiece once again -- this one comes with gospel singers.

3.5 great | meenwolf131 | February 23rd 18 | mellow, sweet, and soulful in the sense on post-punk soundscape / mostly mid-tempo and not so much dynamic but gradually get emotional intense and detailed that catch me on the right melody and atmosphere

3.5 great | Risodo | February 19th 18 | "Room Inside The World" is regular. With many Post-Rock elements and many clear influences from other classic bands of the genre, Ought was able to release an ok album that is cool and fun to listen to. But the sound may sound kind of boring over time. Nothing disastrous, but nothing to celebrate.

2.5 average | notkanyewest | February 18th 18 | My favorite Ought songs were always the ones where Tim Darcy got to shine- yelling, barking, rambling. Here, he basically tries to sing like Morrissey the whole time. I like the fact that they've tried to move beyond the post-punk sound, but it doesn't quite click for me. ("Desire", "Take Everything")
