  Thomas H Green of The Arts Desk found the album to be "no worse – and may even be slightly better – than its predecessor", and wrote that its "best tracks have a zest and bounce that's contagious". Green concluded that the duo "adhere to a cool deep house sensibility, deeply flavoured with UK bass culture, never wandering into the crass corridors of EDM". Hannah Mylrea of NME commented that the album "picks up exactly where their debut Sirens left off" with "a string of catchy tunes, though it's also a record of musical experimentation", highlighting "Hear That", "One Last Song" and "Night Drive".
