The EP was well received by critics. Rock Sound praised its catchy-ness and its range of different sounds, from heavy rock of the featured single to the relaxing acoustic songs, and called it a positive successor to Priorities.[4] Electric Banana applauded its very catchy groove with "tongue-in-cheek" lyrics, and stated that it was consistent with their last album.[5] The Guardian called the album's sound a mixture of Busted and Biffy Clyro. The review continued to complement its blend of "snarling power chords and aggressive strobes" along with the lyrics and dynamic screams.[6]
