Critical reception

NME wrote, "Squelchy bass rummages around in its footwear looking for wildlife, but finds only a sweetly crisp vocal line, looking imploringly destitute. The lush singing creams off the top layer of jaggedness, defusing the critical edge, but not quite making it a safe bet for easy promotion (radio wise and the like). It may gather a brutal dancefloor efficiency, but the appeal is limited. Off stump at the most."[2]
