Critical reception
The Boston Globe wrote that "the band in fine form, still writing terse, insanely catchy, oft sly and oblique pop songs."[11] The Republican noted that the album "contains some sparkling melodies, solid lyrics and interesting, guitar-based arrangements."[9] The Washington Times opined that "the musicians construct uncompromisingly tuneful pop-rock tunes while disassembling lyrical conventions."[12]
