Critical reception

Record Collector wrote that frontman Bruce Soord's songs "aren’t mere entertainments; they’re demanding pieces, both muscular and intricate, concerned with conflicts and dislocation, charting personal battles drawn out on large canvases."[1] The Bristol Post deemed the album "hugely impressive."[6]
