NME     [2]

Rhian Daly of NME called the album "nothing short of electric" with "discordant layers viscerally reflect[ing] the album's emotions of feeling out of place and its eventual message" that "rewards repeat and close listens, each track full of little details that elevate each go round".[2] Maura Johnston of Rolling Stone described it as "psychedelia-tinged and soulful, its lyrics' intense self-interrogation balanced by music that feels like an invite to further explorations".[3]

Commercial performance edit

The album debuted at number two on the South Korean Circle Album Chart with over 585,000 copies sold of its two versions.[4] It also debuted at number two on the Japanese Oricon Albums Chart with over 23,000 sales.[5]
