The album opens with many "strong kicking choruses...ridden with a funky, feel-good, indie disco pound and tight guitar riffs". It "continues to emphasize Little Comets' variety and eclecticism". In sum, it is "an album containing fun, danceable, eclectic eccentricity, a slick, fresh indie vibe and a concluding powerful ballad".[3]
