Paul Carr of PopMatters gave the album 8 stars out of 10, commenting that "As with the band's previous albums, it is exceptionally difficult to categorize their sound as it veers from psychedelia to folk to pop all with an undercurrent of hip-hop."[7] Marcy Donelson of AllMusic gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying, "The project remains a creative burst of sounds, grooves, and stylized observation that's uniquely refreshing to those open to its quirky complexity."[3]
