The Los Angeles Times determined that the album "combines lush, textured melodies with bright-eyed and bushy-tailed vocals."[6] The Chicago Tribune wrote: "It's pop, it's Southern, it's quirky, it's ringing guitars, it's neo-psychedelic, it's haunting."[7]The New York Times concluded that Easter "breaks the symmetry of ordinary pop tunes into irregular phrases, while his lyrics are quizzical and pessimistic."[8]The Philadelphia Inquirer opined that "Easter's rock-group hobby founders this time around on a series of Beatle salutes and a tedious obsession with '60s rock."[4]
