"I saw these guys awhile back and came out pretty impressed, and this disc does nothing to dim that view. I remember them having a pretty strong country-rock leaning, and while that dirt road feeling is still evident here, the band has let their indie pop influences come out a little more, as I'm definitely hearing a Replacements and maybe even a Gigolo Aunts influence (particularly in some of the higher-range harmonies). Jesse has an agreeable voice—suitably boyish and worn-in—and the guitar work is a cut above most, particularly the solo on "Killing Time." While each of the songs has its merits, the clear standout is the barroom romp of "Almost Home." My only complaint would be that the tempos don't change all that much, but that weakness is largely offset by the variances in the song structures. This is a nice piece of work." Kevin Finn, The Noise
