In a positive review for AngryApe, David Adair wrote, "'Devil's Broom' represents another stroke of understated genius from the musical palette of Arthur. Mundane and emotive Morrissey styled lyricism and projected singing with a speckle of the troubled cry of Jeff Buckley, is propped up by a wandering accompaniment that Echo & the Bunnymen used to such startling effect."[1]

A video for the song was produced, directed by Noaz Deshe. It shows Joseph being dragged through a city interspersed with footage of a female lover he longs to be near.
