100 Lovers is the sixth studio album from the band DeVotchKa. It was released by ANTI- Records on February 28, 2011.

Reception

The AllMusic review by James Christopher Monger awarded the album 3.5 stars stating "It’s a melting pot to be sure, and the band has a tendency to go heavy on the atmosphere and light on the hooks, but there’s never any doubt that it’s a brew tended over by some awfully talented cooks.".[1]
