According to a review by Aditya Suharmoko in The Jakarta Post , "Cinta Melulu" and "Jatuh Cinta Itu Biasa Saja" are mellow but do not sound "cheesy", [2] while "Di Udara" has a grim tone. [3] The band called the music mostly introverted and has a slow tempo. [4]
"Di Udara" is dedicated to Munir, a human rights activist who was killed on a plane. The lyrics of "Efek Rumah Kaca" are about global warming, while "Bukan Lawan Jenis" addresses homosexuality. [2] "Jatuh Cinta Itu Biasa Saja" states that blind love is not good. [5] "Cinta Melulu" criticized the tendencies exhibited by Indonesian love songs, especially infidelity. [3] [5] "Melankolia" describes Choilil's mourning upon the death of his father, exhibited through the lyrics "Sadness is beautiful, it slows down the flow of blood". [6] "Belanja Terus Sampai Mati" is an indictment of materialism. [7]
As of 2008, the album has sold more than 4000 copies, making it Paviliun Records best-selling release. [5] Suharmoko described the album as "breathtaking and brilliant". [2] The royalties for the ringback tone for "Di Udara" were given to Munir's family. [6] Rolling Stone Indonesia chose ""Di Udara" and "Cinta Melulu" as the 131st and 143rd best Indonesian songs of all time, respectively, in their December 2009 issue. [8] The album was awarded Rolling Stone Indonesia's Rookie of the Year in 2008; that same year it was nominated for an MTV Asia award as well as an AMI award. [4]
