Critical reception

About v2.0, Bruce Lindsay says in All About Jazz that "v2.0 is the sound of a band moving forward—not in leaps and bounds, but in small steps. There's really no need to jump headlong into the unknown when the foundations set down on Fanfares were so strong. v2.0 builds on those foundations with style, further establishing GoGo Penguin as one of the most exciting young bands on the contemporary scene."

This album was nominated for the Mercury Prize in 2014.
