The San Francisco Chronicle said of the album "The new songs are colored with do-or-die inspiration, mixing her rapid-fire verses with sleek melodies and intricate electronic arrangements."[1] Entertainment Weekly stated that the album "pairs spaced-out rap beats and chiming indie rock that K.Flay tops with her frequently tricky flows, making a chocolate-in-my-peanut-butter situation that should please rap-loving indie rockers, or the other way around"[3]

"Can't Sleep" is featured in the 2021 film The Suicide Squad.[4]
