Savages (Breathe Carolina album)

Savages is the fourth studio album by electronic band Breathe Carolina released on April 15, 2014 through Fearless Records in the United States.

[2] Although it was intended to contain material that was being written for the upcoming album, the departure of Kyle and addition of Tommy prompted a change in track list.

The group embarked on the "We Are Savages Tour" in 2014 with supporting acts from Mod Sun, Jonny Craig, Ghost Town, Lionfight and Divided By Friday.

[8] David Schmitt spoke about the concept of the album:[9] Savages isn't a bad thing, it's just about how you live your life and chasing your dreams, I want people to get out of this record that they feel like they are a part of the band when they are done listening to it...

"[10] Breathe Carolina has hinted that Savages will be a mixture of their musical roots and a new electronic sound, different from all three of their previous full-length albums.

At Alternative Press, Dan Leroy rated the album three-and-a-half stars out of four, saying that "if you are looking for largely a guiltless guilty pleasure for the summer of 2014, you're in the right place".

[24] Elysa Gardner of USA Today rated the album two-and-a-half stars out of four, writing that "Breathe Carolina's sound is processed and pumped-up", however "some of the band's strongest grooves to date and canny atmospheric (and acoustic) touches make a number of tracks diverting".
