The EP is described as surf-punk indie rock, and it draws comparison to the music of Mac DeMarco, Real Estate, Wavves, and Car Seat Headrest.
[1] Atwood columnist Russ Finney notes The Same Noise represents "a refinement of what the band did well on its previous extended play," adding "what sticks out about the latest EP is the way in which the humor and distinct personality conveyed lyrically not only anchor, but also manage to reinvigorate, the tropes of surf-punkish music.
"[1] Jim Testa of Jersey Beat compares the EP to the music of Saves the Day and the Cure, describing it as "chimey indie pop that combines cocky, youthful vocals with reverb-y guitars and infectious melodies."
"[5] The Deli editor Olivia Sisinni describes the song "Through Being Hip" as an "upbeat anthem set against the millenial malaise[;] the ironic lyrics are supported by catchy instrumentals with surf rock drumbeats, that have the potential to become our next earworm.
"[3] The song is also called a "quirky, catchy jam that clocks in at barely over two minutes but packs major attitude, the breezy, power-pop combo of guitar and drums mixing with the slightly snarky punch of lead vocals" by Elmore.
