Reception

Joe Shooman of Record Collector awarded the album 4/5 and wrote "... as the title indicates, the band are in no mood to mess around. The result is that ace lyrics, riffs and ideas burst out from all angles".[1] Hayley Scott rated it 7/10 for Line of Best Fit and wrote "Its allure is not immediately perceptible – it takes time to win you over, but it withstands repeated listens; its appeal never waning but heightening with perseverance".[2] In Mojo it was given 4/5 and described as "Heartening evidence of the British art of mentally transforming ennui and chagrin into something approaching gold".[3]
