AllMusic[1]

Feel Good Now was given a 3.5 star rating by AllMusic, and in its review by Tim Sendra, he calls it an "even more assured-sounding, extremely well-crafted pop." He also remarks that, "The only downside of the record, and the band itself, is that they are hard to slot into any one style -- too pop for emo, too emo for pop -- and this may affect their sales." Evan Lucy of Alternative Press was critical of the EP stating, "there’s not much diversity, something a sound like Witzigreuter’s sorely needs."[12]
