Release and reception

The album received mainly positive reviews. British newspaper The Guardian awarded the album full marks, describing it as "an alternative dancefloor gem".[1] Jeff Terich of Treble called the album "ecstatic, extravagant rock `n' roll", praising the band's ability to "lay down some fuckin' hits" and declaring them "the band that is giving rock a much-needed kick in the pants".[2] British music magazine NME were also quick to praise the band, noting their "absolutely spiffo corkers-to-hummers ratio".[3]

In 2007 the band played on an NME sponsored Rock 'N' Roll Riot US Tour alongside The Hold Steady, Demander, Federale, 1990s and Art Brut.[4][5]
