Reception
Upon release, the album generally drew negative reviews from critics.[4] CMJ stated, "It took this Ariel Pink cohort five years to write and record his debut album, and only five minutes to become more annoying than Ariel Pink."[4] Tiny Mix Tapes gave the LP a four-star review, in which they wrote that Maus's singing "is always an effortless balance between weird visceral descriptions, deadpan humor and the uncomfortably honest."[3]
