Reception.
"Rolling Stone" awarded the album 4 out of 5 stars, saying that the "debut album from festival favourites perfectly captures their intense, slightly crazy live spirit".
"The Vine" praised the band and the album, saying its "packed from top to toe with fist-pumping, bass-throbbing anthems, the cheek of Art vs. Science might be the only thing saving the kids from utter blandness".
"Mess and Noise" gave the record a poor review saying, "The album could be easily dismissed as a one-note act making hay while the sun still shines on their blissfully brainless patch of land".
"The Daily Telegraph" proclaimed "this is Australian pop music to be proud of".
Australian street press was unified in its praise of the album, with "The Brag", "Drum Media", "Beat" and "Time Off" all awarding the band 4 out of 5 and Album of the Week status.
