Critical reception
It was released to critical acclaim, awarded 9/10 by Marc Burrows of Drowned in Sound, who, acknowledging that three of the band are ex-Fall members, wrote "the new songs are what really impress, glowing with a sparky freshness few saw coming. Groups made from former members of another band aren’t meant to transcend the nostalgia circuit."Burrows, Marc. "Brix and the Extricated, Part 2 ". Drowned in Sound, 25 September 2017.
