Critical reception

The Chicago Tribune wrote that "the pleasures crop up enough that this electro-pop tingles with the soothing energy of running a 5K and flopping onto a bed of cotton candy." [5] The Detroit Metro Times wrote that the band "makes some of the weirdest, most fun and interesting 8-bit electro pop around." [8]
