Critical reception

[edit | edit source]

The A.V. Club wrote: "Rich and instantly accessible, the Ladybug Transistor has created a sound, regardless of source material, that's entirely its own."[6] The Hartford Courant called the album "a collection of panoramic, pastoral pop that reflects the sights and sounds of their world with the same loving texture and color that Brian Wilson illustrated the California shore with."[7]
