Philip Wilding at Classic Rock said: "LTB's woes have been rewarded with something remarkable: their best record yet."[4] Writing for DIY, Sarah Jamieson explained: "Backed up by powerful guitars and soaring vocals, their brand of intense but atmospheric rock feels rejuvenating."[5] At Gigwise, Mark McConville said: "The Hope List is an expansive chronicle, spearheading truths and dislodging mediocrity. Every song is monumental and there’s a thread running through them all. The Hope List delivers rage and sorrow in equal measure, and it is a monumental release for the Cambridge band."[6] Writing for The Line of Best Fit, Steven Loftin wrote: "Stepping inside The Hope List feels like setting foot on a wide open field, where clouds mar the sunlight, but a warmth still radiates all around. A gentle wind flurries, blowing all around while the horizon feels endless."[8] Dillan Eastoe from Upset Magazine explained: "Recorded at weekends when day jobs and family life permitted, 'The Hope List' finds the band surging back and sounding invigorated by the hardships they've overcome to get here."[10]
Tour
The band was scheduled for a UK tour in April 2021, but got pushed for October 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[11][12]
