Reception
The single gained mainly positive reviews from the music industry, with Jasmine Phull of ThisIsFakeDIY awarding the album 8/10 and said this of the mix of traditional Basque music and electronica: "The quintet manages to bring two normally opposing genres together with an outcome not unlike one harmonious civil ceremony; the unity of two separate entities that work best when together". Major music magazines Q and Mojo both awarded the single 4 out of 5. Nick Bryans, of The Whiteboard Project, awarded the album 6.5 out of 10, citing the following:"A reoccurring and perturbing issue that resonates with the song, is if one would describe as impressive, rather than enjoyable. All the components are there, but it seems to lack a drive or spark. The big issue in this lo-fi style, is when a purposely demure tone starts to sound more like someone simply going through the motions, and certainly the song lacks drive and tenacity. It’s not enough to just be able to put styles of music together, you need to achieve something out of the ordinary with it."
