Sound


This album has less of a focus on guitars when compared to the band's following releases.


Reception


Charity Stafford of AllMusic gave the album a positive review stating, "It's Classy, Not Classic, is a largely synthesized album of sleek electronic pop songs filled with catchy dance beats and an incongruous blend of pitch-altered processed vocals and hectoring screamo howls. The combination works surprisingly well, making It's Classy, Not Classic a unique new take on modern indie rock without falling into the trap of being just a novelty."[6]


Chart performance


It reached number 186 on the Billboard 200, as well as number 6 on the Billboard Heatseekers Albums chart.[7][8]
