Critical reception
The Austin Chronicle called Hexadecagon "a concept album that's actually fun to indulge," writing that it "finds [the band] diving headlong into unexplored realms (the 11-minute 'Circling'), and sounding more thoughtful, less cartoonish."[7] Spin wrote: "Hexadecagon is the Tubular Bells of the 8-bit generation, and that’s a compliment."[8]
