Reception

Writing for The Big Takeover, Cody Conrad noted "a rare urgency to their music" and stated that this "can be a difficult album to listen to, but that’s part of the reason it’s so great".[1] Renaldo69 of PunkNews made this a staff pick and praised the mix of genres on this album and called the music a "whirlwind of tracks".[2] A brief profile for TinyMixTapes by Art Ivan summed up that "the kids’ll love it" for being able to switch between moods and tones.[3] Frank Valish of Under the Radar called Mannequin Pussy one of the overlooked albums of 2014, commenting on the album's intensity that "the songs hit you over the head like an anvil and pummel with a ferocity and ferociousness that will force you to submit", but noting that repeated spins will reward listeners with diverse music that includes "girl-group melodies, shoegaze-y haze, and metal fuzz".[4]
