Trouser Press called it "a lovely little record".[2]

It was ranked at number 41 on Mojo magazine's "Buried Treasures" list.[3]

gollark: 20somethingsomething.
gollark: <@175822114916532224> As an xenowyrm collector, I can help with 2Gs and stuff and occasionally CB ones.
gollark: Coppers aren't yellow, they are green/brown/reddish, all hail coppers, but mostly all hail our xenowyrm overlords.
gollark: Coppers and Xenowyrms and Nebulae and Balloons [and a million others...] 4ever!
gollark: I like it more than the male, but find both a bit too gaudy or whatever.
