Keane's most recent release Night Train features eight refreshingly innovative tracks written and recorded while the band was on a 28-country arena tour in support of their album Perfect Symmetry. Night Train includes several songs that challenge the boundaries of genre via unique collaborations with Somali/Canadian rapper K'Naan and Japanese funk singer Tigarah.
The album has already been lauded for its signature brooding rock combined with synth-pop flourishes, leading Rolling Stone to say that with its 'brass-bolstered soul' and 'electro-flavored dance pop... Keane have proved themselves masters of... pop perkiness.' Alternative Press drew comparisons to David Bowie and Radiohead and People gave it three out of four stars.
