The album was generally well-received, retaining a rating of 76 out of 100 on the review aggregating site Metacritic.[12] Absolute Punk gave a favorable review, stating "Phantogram have put forth a collection of heady and stimulating songs primed for in-the-dark listening." However, another review from the Prefix magazine gave it a 5.5/10, recognizing that the two have potential for making good music, but saying that the debut was "something of a stumble out of the gate."[10] BBC Music gave it an 8 out of 10.[7]
