"Should Momma indeed become household names, it's the hooks that will get them there: The beefy riffs and call-and-response chorus of single "Speeding 72"-their best shot at a true hit-just barely outweigh its cliché of a good old-fashioned joyride. "Put the pedal to the metal, lay it all to rest," the duo sing, before piecing together a chorus from boilerplate rhymes. Household Name could easily feel too formulaic, but with tongue partially in cheek, moments like "Speeding 72" come as a welcome indicator of a band that isn't taking itself too seriously".

"Household Name's 12 songs rely on a core group of chords and timbres, ultimately seeming like different chapters of the same drifting, all-night dream in which they air grievances with no one on the receiving end. Whether it's highly relatable or a bit paint-by-numbers is up to the listener, although the blueprint here is an auspiciously well-tested one".

"While the record doesn't provide too much up-and-down sonically, everything is streamlined as much as possible to aim for a collection of taut three-minute rock songs. The ambition on show throughout 'Household Name' is to be lauded in itself, and Momma deserve to be viewed like the rockstars they sing of".
