Critical reception of the album was generally mixed. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has received an average score of 59, based on 8 reviews.[9] The Sunday Times called it "their best album yet" but BBC critic Will Dean wrote "musically it's as solid as you'd expect [...] [b]ut Keep Calm... is unlikely to win Stereophonics any new fans,"[1] while Andy Gill, for The Independent, concluded that "overall, what comes across from Keep Calm and Carry On is confusion."[16][17]

Keep Calm and Carry On es el noveno álbum del grupo galés Stereophonics. Lanzado por Mercury el 16 de noviembre de 2009 el álbum debutó en el número 11 en las listas británicas, la posición más baja para un álbum de estudio lanzado por la banda.
El nombre de un cartel británico de la Segunda Guerra Mundial con el mismo nombre, el álbum recibió críticas mixtas, en general, por los críticos de la música.
The Sunday Times lo llamó su mejor álbum, pero - crítico de la BBC Will Dean escribió "Musicalmente es tan sólido como era de esperar [...] Mantenga la calma ... es poco probable que gane Stereophonics fans nuevos", mientras que Andy Gill, de The Independent, concluye que "en general, lo que viene a través de mantener la calma y seguir adelante es la confusión."

Название альбома заимствовано с агитационного плаката, произведенного в Великобритании в 1939 году в начале Второй мировой войны и известного как Keep Calm and Carry On (рус. Сохраняйте спокойствие и продолжайте в том же духе)[1][9].
