While this second LP departs from the more hook-driven sound of Before Braille's first effort, The Rumor, the critical consensus was very positive.

For example, according to Chelsea Ide of the Phoenix New Times, "Tired of Not Being Away From Here has the same signature style as other Before Braille records -- powerful rock with gut-wrenching lyrics -- but with this latest effort, the Phoenix band has spread its wings a bit wider" to offer a fuller sound "with stronger guitar bridges throughout.
