Reception[edit]

Al Horner of Drowned in Sound gave the album an 8 out of 10, describing it as "a dizzying rush of grinding synths, sun-splashed harmonies and wide-eyed eccentricity – with a strange beauty to match its outlandishness."[2]

It was ranked at number 19 on Tiny Mix Tapes' "Favorite 25 Album Covers of 2011" list.[9]
