He compared the songs to that of the band Fountains of Wayne.^[5] Heather Phares of Allmusic called the album "much better" when the duo "tones down the hyperactivity and sticks to making songs with ridiculously ingratiating hooks".^[3] Wallach's voice was compared to that of Carl Wilson of The Beach Boys.^[13]
