Need to Feel Your Love is the debut studio album of Philadelphia punk group Sheer Mag. It was recorded in six months starting in the fall of 2016 and produced by Hart Seeley. It differs from previous records by the band for its cleaner sound and more dynamic tone. Lyrically, the album has both political songs and soul, funk, and disco-tinged love tracks. Debuting on July 6, 2017 via streaming by NPR Music and on July 14, 2017 in other formats by the Wilsuns Recording Company and Static Shock Records, Need to Feel Your Love received acclaim from reviewers, some of them calling it one of the best LPs of 2017. Many critics highlighted its combination of different musical influences and the extension of Sheer Mag's musical range. However, the album was also criticized for being over-reliant on elements of old music. Need to Feel Your Love was included in the top 30 of year-end lists of publications such as Rolling Stone, NME, Spin, Slant Magazine, Noisey, and Paste.
