"[4] "One Twenty Two" was mixed by Matt Bayles, who produced most of Botch's catalogue in addition to several albums by Knudson's Minus the Bear and Cook's These Arms Are Snakes.

Writing for Pitchfork, Rob Arcand said the music video, "finds the band performing live in a practice space with dramatic cuts and lighting effects that capture the song's intensity.

"[10] The recording of the music video was the first time Knudson performed live since 2018 after Minus the Bear's final tour, and he said he injured his neck from headbanging too hard.

Dave Knudson's spindly-but-burly guitar riff anchors the chaos as the rhythm section (bassist Brian Cook and drummer Tim Latona) gives the anthemic stomp swaggering purpose.

"[11] Writing for Rolling Stone, Kory Grow said, "Although each of the musicians have played in a variety of styles with other bands, they settle into one of their off-kilter grooves naturally on the track.

"[3] Jack Rogers of Rock Sound said the song is, "a spiky and seething two minutes of noodling riffs and crushing bass, with the sort of innovative grit that only [Botch] could bring to the table.
