The album has garnered mostly positive reviews. The AU Review talks of their unique sound - "a sultry mix of folk inspired rock and roll, The First Dance is gentle but strong, holding an understated power, a subtle strength that many bands lack,".[11] Mac Easton at Soulshine speaks favourably, "The First Dance is a musical moment to be absolutely savoured."[12] "The album - anything but raucous - lures the listener to the same state felt on a relaxed yet contemplative summer's afternoon," says Drone Magazine.[13]

gollark: <@201096871341588480> That's not the IP the requests are being sent from. I assume the quotas are actually being *tracked* somewhere, and *that quota is probably wrong* if you're getting the random bits via HTTP request from your proxy.

gollark: But *why*?

gollark: IPv6 is becoming increasingly important, what with all the issues with IPv4 address availability.
