The McClatchy-Tribune News Service called the album "a pop-friendly, danceable concoction of quirk—it mixes violins, eerie bells, funky guitar riffs, xylophones and theremin, and washes it all down with a sugary-sticky swig of psychedelic Kool-Aid."[6] The Star Tribune labeled it "a fun fermentation of a kitchen sink of sounds—from cheesy space-age electronica to Prince—with written-on-acid lyrics."[7]
