Critical reception

AllMusic wrote: "Sweet, emotive ballads are half heartbreak, half hopeful resignation and showcase the strong songwriting that has a tendency to get buried in the more aggressive tracks."[1] NPR wrote that "in 'The Pub', the words are alternately light and dark, commenting on barroom prophets and regulars, but the music is decidedly upbeat and energetic."[6] The Chicago Reader thought that "on explosive rave-ups like 'The Crutch' or the pretty mug-clinking ditty 'The Last Night on Earth', the band's gleeful mix of tin whistle, violin, mandolin, piano, and rock instrumentation can turn the room of your choice into a raucous Irish pub."[7]
