Sadnecessary is the debut studio album by the group, released in Germany on 31 May 2013. It was released in the United States a year later, on 14 October 2014.[2]
The album peaked at number 14 in Germany, and charted at 17 on the Billboard 200 chart.[3] The group toured in support of the album, and on 5 December 2013, they won the 1Live Krone radio awards for the Best Single with "Stolen Dance".[3]
It received largely positive press, and within a day of its release in 2014, Spin named Sadnecessary their Album of the Week.[2] Spin further described the leading single "Stolen Dance" as a "serenely rollicking crossover jam", clarifying that the song "is no red herring — the great majority of Sadnecessary follows in its pattern of low-octane beats and gently lapping guitar strumming, making for a lovely and understated album."[2] Remarking on Rehbein's "weathered" vocal style, Billboard said the band's "less-is-more aesthetic puts it front and center, where it will either enchant or annoy listeners."[5]
