Critical reception
Derek Staples of Spectrum Culture gave the album a 2.75 out of 5, calling it "an amalgam of androgynous lyricism, shoegaze electronics, second-wave acid techno and downtempo darkwave."[13] Matt James of PopMatters gave the album 7 stars out of 10, saying: "It's anarchic, noisy, sweaty, somewhat scrappy at times, but a ton of fun."[12]
