"'Higher', the lead single off Simple Forms, deals with both pain and passion, and in great quantities. Razor synths buzzsaw and grind before being uplifted by Xayalith's skyscraper vocals."- Consequence of Sound

"forging dynamic indie pop that's tinged with infectious choruses, massive hooks, and synthpop lines that just won't quit, especially on their latest, Simple Forms."- Elle

"2016's deeply emotive Simple Forms is a fittingly dark-hued effort rife with heartbreak, loss, and, ultimately, a sense of forgiveness." - All Music

"If there's one thing that The Naked and Famous are never going to forget how to do, is to create incredibly pretty but awe-inspiringly loud hits." - MXDWN

"the fiercely independent New Zealand natives have specialized in intensely catchy songs that straddle the line between electronic and rock." - Entertainment Voice

The Naked and Famous released their newest album, Simple Forms, on Oct 14th via their label Somewhat Damaged in partnership with Kobalt Label Services. Simple Forms is available at iTunes and Spotify now. The band kicks off their extensive North American tour this Wednesday at Portland's Roseland Theater. They have also recently announced Australian and European dates in early 2017.
