Critical reception
Exclaim! wrote that the album "has the requisite guitar harmonics and occasional thrashing drum part, but mostly it is a pop record along the lines of Blink 182." The Los Angeles Times called More Betterness! "the band’s best-regarded full-length." CMJ New Music Report called it "intelligent punk rock" and a "refreshing change of pace." The Washington Post called the album "energetic," but noted that all the songs "tend to sound the same."
