Critical reception
Trouser Press wrote that "while it has its share of Kiwi brilliance ... it also contains some distracting experiments that find the band flirting needlessly with art-rock and dance motifs." The Guardian called the band "often-overlooked," praising "Inside and Out" from the "excellent" The Size of Food. Blurt called "Elemental" the highlight, writing that "the whole album is very strong."
