Reception
The album received a five-star rating from The Skinny, whose reviewer Patrick Gamble referred it as "a cinematic exploration of the self that reveals the human psyche as a strange and uncanny landscape."[1]
Igor Bannikov of Clash described the album as "something strange and eerie, yet surprisingly close to a pop album, with weirdly catchy melodies that tempt you to either dance or hide under the bed, the very thing music critics with their radars on may be looking for," giving it a rating of eight out of ten.[7]
AllMusic's Paul Simpson called the album "a unique sonic environment that actually becomes stranger as one spends more time inside of it."[6]
