"Catfish and the Bottlemen can raise a ruckus, and Lee knows how to sharpen this sound so it can draw blood. He also can smooth some of their sharper edges so the more melodic numbers seem like they could fill an arena, a move that may underscore how the group is just slightly old-fashioned - there just aren't that many rock bands who play on such a large scale in 2019 - yet there's no denying that this is a tight, frills-free execution of Catfish and the Bottlemen's essence".

"The Llandudno four-piece stick to the script with this assured third album of solid indie rock tunes. As they put it themselves: "Nothing's really changed" ... The lyric could sum up this technically accomplished and assured record, which doesn't do a massive amount to deviate from the template of Catfish's debut. Well, sometimes the formula just works".
