Rhythm Romance is the fifth album by Detroit-based rock band the Romantics, released on Nemperor Records in 1985.

[1] On Rhythm Romance, the Romantics had moved further away from their power pop roots towards more mainstream rock.

[3] In a retrospective review for AllMusic, Chris Woodstra opined that the band had become "full-fledged arena rockers complete with a big ultraslick production... and an utterly forgettable batch of songs.

"[2] Trouser Press called it "another likably dumb batch of pop songs culminating in a credibly rootsy version of "Poison Ivy.

"[4] All tracks written by Wally Palmar, Coz Canler and Mike Skill, except where noted.
