Reception

Fred Miketa of XLR8R reviewed the CD, giving it 8/10 and saying, "You can call Ross Ross Ross fucked-up techno or chopped electro, but don't say that it isn't ahead of its time." [1] Gareth Thorton of Glasswerk gave it another favourable review, highlighting in particular the title track: "In terms of high points it’s hard to look beyond title track Ross Ross Ross, a raucous mesh of truncated samples causing the involuntary thrusting of body parts." [2] Lara Moloney of The Skinny gave it three out of five stars, noting, "Good tracks to listen out for are the Ross Ross Ross production and Cut Copy's Going Nowhere remix which has a more enthusiastic dance beat."
