Reception edit

Greg Prato of AllMusic, in his review of the album, described how "Evermore has yet to find their own sound and approach, as evidenced by many tracks that sound like they could have easily been plucked from either Absolution or The Bends – especially 'It's Too Late' and 'Come to Nothing.'[2] IGN's Chad Grischow observed, "The sloppy rocker, 'Come to Nothing' is the first track on the album that does not quite sound up to par; marking the beginning of the decline on the album."[3] Robyn Gallagher of 5000 Ways analysed the related music video, "[it is] heavy-handed with symbolism, putting Jon and his bros into a derelict, fire-gutted house. We also see a young woman wandering the same house, but staying well away from Evermore. Just as well. It seems they have some issues... [it] is shot in desaturated colours, creating a gloomy world where a relationship break-up feels like the least awful thing that could happen in an average day."[4]
