Critical reception

The Sydney Morning Herald wrote: "Though basically a pop group with snarly guitars, 3Ds' records manage to sustain a feeling of mystery that stamps them as different. Their tunes don't yield hidden meanings when probed but glow with particular emotions—anger, contentment, disappointment, depression, the admiration of simple beauty." CMJ New Music Monthly thought that "the 3Ds' subtle ease into a less frenetic groove isn't damaging ... the eeriness of their 'pop' songs is only heightened more by the drawing out."
