Production
The album was recorded at Rockfield Studios in a week.[8]
Critical reception
The Guardian wrote that the band "certainly fall back on derivative harmonic techniques – any resemblance to Crosby, Stills & Nash is, presumably, intentional – and aim for a sweetly emollient guitar sound rather than originality."[3] The Skinny wrote that "Kassidy seem to have taken every single step to be as inoffensive as possible."[5]
