Production

The album was recorded after the departure of guitarist Sindi Benezra, making the band a quartet.[3]

Critical reception

Ox-Fanzine called Luxury Problems "a noisy, in no way overproduced punk rock album with a certain 'indie rock' touch ... a solid, satisfying proposition."[7] CMJ New Music Report wrote that the band retains "its fatal chops and sharp lyrical teeth."[8]
