Critical reception[]

The Chicago Tribune wrote that the album's "herky-jerky songs extend Chicago's noisy indie-rock tradition."[5] Drowned in Sound called it "exhilarating," writing that it is full of "wheezing melodic splutters and elasticated yelps."[6] The Aquarian wrote that it "settles into a continuously unwinding 'math rock' mosaic."[7]
