(.) The exploration of any and all sounds; the delicate use of strings to heighten emotion, the touching piano-based 'Oblivion'. There are moments, instruments, timings, buried within his experimentation that take you entirely by surprise.' Brice Ezell of compared the band to the sound of and wrote, 'booming male choirs, string effects, echoey pianos, allusions to and the Bible – Bastille brings out all the artillery on Bad Blood, and the result is nothing less than earth-shattering.' He concluded that 'for all 43 enrapturing minutes of Bad Blood, you'll be convinced that everything and everyone you've ever loved are suddenly leaving you, and now the only thing left to do is reach out and declare from the mountaintops all the things you've kept secret in your life.
