The Livelong Day is the third studio album by Irish folk music group Lankum, released on 25 October 2019 through Rough Trade Records.

[2] Q called it a "frequently unsettling listen, but never a joyless one", with Uncut also describing it as "dark, powerful and disquieting stuff that resonates long after its final note has subsided".

Mojo felt that Lankum "approach the tradition with an awe and wonder that especially percolates into the instrumentals", calling the album "their most extreme statement yet".

[2] AllMusic's Timothy Monger wrote that "with a sizzling intensity that feels almost menacing, Lankum draw deeply from the well of Ireland's ancient music, transporting both familiar and long-forgotten tunes to surreal new heights while adding a handful of worthy originals to the canon", finding that the album's "dark majesty is well worth the engagement".

[4] Lucy O'Toole of Hot Press found that aside from the dark moments, there is "a deep, resounding love encased within the music throughout the album – with Radie Peat’s tenderly earthy vocals embodying the Irish landscape and people to stunning effect".
