Critical reception

Stephen Rae from Music Feeds said despite their freshness "[The Jungle Giants] have asserted themselves as real up-and-comers amidst an ever-growing scene." adding "The Jungle Giants as a band that may be still finding their feet but are more than capable of producing some top quality in the process." [5]

Antigone Anagnostellis from Purple Sneakers said "[The Jungle Giants] down-to-earth lyrics and solid arrangements are reminiscent of an early Kooks or Jinja Safari. You can tell these guys were friends in high school – their musical talents fit well together."[6]

Charley Rico from The Courier Mail said the EP is full of "Catchy riffs and full of pop-driven melodies"[4]
