Critical reception

The Columbus Dispatch wrote that "Celtic sounds—tin whistle, bodhran, bagpipes—are just part of the mix, but the real focus is gently pleasing rock songs." [6]

AllMusic thought that "in their less developed efforts, Carbon Leaf is still working on shaking the jam band-trying-to-make-good image, and they can be a bit repetitious, as on 'Aurora'." [1]
