Jason D. Taylor from Allmusic described the lyrics as "scathing in their intensity yet brutally honest" and is an album which "displays much potential". He compares their musical arrangements to post-hardcore band Thursday. Pitchfork Media's Rob Mitchum calls the album a blend of "straightforward indie rock with some jagged post-punk hues for a rhythmic, powerful, incisive guitar-and-bass attack", and the band "distinguish themselves with some impressive songwriting.
