Reception
AllMusic said the band's, "specialty was a power-pop/alternative rock style that served them well on loveBUZZ", and noted the album would be enjoyed by, "those who like jangly guitar music that's lively and energetic but consistently appealing melodically and harmonically".

In The Sell-In, Craig Mathieson said, "Mitch Easter's disciplined approach had captured a guitar-spangled, fragile sound focussing attention on the voices. LoveBUZZ had enough romantic verve and sheer pop delight, mixed with the band's indie routes, to make the album one of the releases of the year."
