Reception

Emily Young from Square One Magazine gave the album 4/5 and said "Stand Atlantic have a lot to live up to with their sophomore album, Pink Elephant. With their typical sound and metaphorical lyrics, Stand Atlantic prove that they knew exactly who they wanted to be, and nailed it". [6]

Jake Richardson from Kerrang! gave the album 3/5 and described the album as "a competent offering of well-crafted poppy rock songs, albeit with the odd dud thrown in." Richardson added "Stand Atlantic are at their best on this record when the energy levels are high, something evidenced by the likes of 'Eviligo', 'DWYW' and the sunny rocker that is 'Soap'." [7]
