The album received mixed responses from critics reflected on Metacritic by its normalized score of 55 out of 100 based on 12 reviews.[1] Jonathan Ringen of Rolling Stone called it "a catchier-than-chlamydia mix of power-pop hooks and effects-heavy riffage" but noted that "all the candy-coated excess might leave you feeling a little like Courtney Love after a heavy night".[4] For Allmusic, Johnny Loftus referred to the songs as "sexy catch phrases around rhythms that have been heard before".[2]
All songs written by Pedro Yanowitz & Chantal Claret except as noted.
