The album peaked at number two in Greece, and achieved modest chart placings in other European countries. Critical reception The album was released to generally positive reviews. '' Drowned in Sound'' felt that Tindersticks have "created a record that certainly rivals, if not betters any of its three predecessors from the past decade". ''Pitchfork'' summed up the record by saying "it leaves a very hazy, almost spectral impression when it ends. But it's also warm and in some ways comforting, and it improves the more you listen to it and tease out the details in the songs." BBC Music described the album as "the sound of a band rediscovering themselves" and '' Uncut'' had a similar view, saying Tindersticks sounded like "a band with restored self-belief, again loving doing what they do better than anyone else".
