But Bdrmm's world of noise is so artfully constructed it's hard to not find yourself lost within it", while Uncut called it a "strong debut throughout" and Mojo felt the band "treads the queasy tightrope of prime Cure, Ride etc with real dexterity".

[2] Paul Simpson of AllMusic found that "the group seem well-versed in dream pop and post-punk, with a hazy but clean guitar sound and steady, propulsive drumming that nods to Krautrock and space rock".

"[5] NME's Rhys Buchanan noted that the band "have channelled the emotional turmoil around growing up into a modern shoegaze classic", calling it "a glorious and human introduction".

"[6] Under the Radar's Dom Gourlay described it as "a concept album of sorts that switches moods with every key, whether it be subtle instrumental opener 'Momo' or its segue into the dizzy heights of 'Push/Pull'".

[7] Clash's Robin Murray felt the album "gives the band room to fully explore their sonic palette, resulting in a project of real depth and no small degree of emotional heft", describing it as a "vital listen" as well as "much more than a genre piece".
