Critical reception
Trouser Press called the album "effective and likable," writing that "Hanley explores the titular theme of dispatching an ex, singing her disillusioned and bitter lyrics ... with conviction and power against loud rock-pop that reaches its apogee in the nearly Breeders-like surge of 'Anchor'."<ref name="TP">Template:Cite web</ref> The Orange County Register considered it "nothing special, each song an imitation of standard alternative music this decade without adding anything new to the mix."<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
