The review highlighted the tracks "Desks.Pencils.Bottles" and "When Irony Wears Thin" while finding the final two tracks as "slightly less ear-catching."PopMatters praised the album specifically citing the track "Love You Bring" as "essential", only finding an issue with the releases brevity.Exclaim! echoed PopMatters statement of "Love You Bring" as a highlight.AllMusic referred to the release as a "pretty darn good one", but also found the album too short.
