The album was met with mixed critical response, with Allmusic rating it as four stars out of five and BBC Internet Music Reviews describing it as "one of the finest releases of the year so far. If you were one of those people who wrote them off two years ago, it's time to get listening again."[12] However, the album received less than favourable reviews from a number of other sources, including Pitchfork Media and NME.
