The name of the album was later used as a line in the song "Staring at the Sun," by U2.

Critical reception

Trouser Press wrote: "With a catchy chorus and comically awkward syntax, 'Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, (Petrol)' is a certified shoulda-been hit; the sumptuously melancholy 'Kill the Roses' takes things in a more textured, moody direction. Good show."[4]

The album ranked #33 on The Irish Times's 2008 list of the top 40 Irish albums.[5]
