Our Love

His fifth album as Caribou: ten songs, the most danceable of his records.
Caribou, 2014

Our Love is ten songs, and an expanded edition adds seven more. Snaith said he wanted the record generous and for a broad audience. It reached 46 in the US, 8 in the UK, 2 on both the UK and US dance charts, 19 in Canada and 17 in Switzerland.

The Guardian's Alexis Petridis gave it five stars and called it a subtle, beautiful triumph; Pitchfork's Jamieson Cox, who scored it 8.6, called it a very assured record. AllMusic's Fred Thomas wrote that it is the most straightforwardly danceable Caribou album to date; Resident Advisor called it a grower and Slant called it dreary.
