Reception
Reviews of Bread and Circuses were mixed.[2] It entered the UK Album Charts at #14. First single "Sunday" was released as a free download in November 2010 and second single "Grace" was released one week before the album in March 2011, with the previously unreleased B-side "Clowns". "Grace" was inspired by guitarist Pete Reilly's downstairs neighbour and their noise complaints against him.[3] The single failed to chart inside the UK top 100.

gollark: Although I'm not sure if I need commands other than `identify`, `set_channels` and `send`.
gollark: Hmm, so I actually have this working, apart from information about who sent a message, the v4 protocol being able to actually send anything, and sending objects instead of strings.
gollark: Idea: brute-force golf programs.
gollark: Wait, first-class *rational* numbers?
gollark: Otherwise do you mean nullary?
