Critical reception

Ian Cohen of Pitchfork gave the EP a 5.2 out of 10, describing it as "a regression rather than a rightful claim to what's theirs" that "benefits from the sketch-like character of its remaining songs."[4]

Mike Diver of BBC listed it as one of the six best EPs of 2012.[8]

gollark: Scripting capability is useful for doing random stuff a lot of times, or in bulk, and I do that occasionally.
gollark: If you *do* have to work with non-Linux stuff it probably isn't worth it.
gollark: I mean, I have a more streamlined workflow thanks to Linux permitting useful scripting and whatnot. But as a programming hobbyist only I have control of what stuff I work with and can say "not using this, it's Windows-only/inconvenient".
gollark: Yes, it doesn't work for everything and the UI is kind of bad.
