Critical reception
Andrew Leahey of AllMusic summarized it as a "grounded, no-frills album, sometimes sweeping in scope."[2] The A.V. Club's Marc Hawthorne found producer Sardy's presence intruding, writing, "he and [Sardy] have given his music a sheen that adds too much distance between performer and listener."[3] Michael Hann at The Guardian felt the album's contents artificial, commenting, "It's a pleasant haze of guitars, bass and drums, sliding by like midwestern plains viewed from a car window [...] but there's little of the sense of sincere connection that lifts the very best American heartland rock out of its homeland and makes it universal."[4]
