  ## Critical reception
  
  In an 8/10 review, Drowned In Sound described the track as sounding "like Animal Collective rifling through The Rapture’s audio files on electro night". It came 12th in a top tracks of 2007 list compiled by NME. In October 2011, NME placed it at number 142 on its list of "150 Best Tracks of the Past 15 Years".
