Critical reception

PopMatters called the album "geometrically precise yet warmly organic, serenely unperturbed but with a bubbling undercurrent of mirth," writing that "this is what might happen to post-rock if you put it in a warm corner of the garden and allowed it to grow." Exclaim! called it "instrumental post-rock covered in molasses ... the pace is lethargic, barely creeping beyond a plod."
