"At its least interesting, Join the Dots contributes another couple of additions to the teetering pile of My Bloody Valentine-inspired alt-rock tracks, guitars strummed while holding the tremolo arm and all. But elsewhere, Toy reconcile the extremes of their sound in a way that's really exciting ... Best of all is the title track, which starts out dazed and somnambulant, but thrillingly attains feedback-drenched vertical takeoff after three and half minutes".
