In a three-star review, NME praised the trio for combining “’80s pop hooks with intriguing and interesting new ideas” on the record.Shortly after that LP came out, TDCC cancelled their planned European headline tour due to the health of bassist Kevin Baird.

The musician explained in a statement that he had been receiving treatment for an “incurable autoimmune disease”.“[…] We’ve decided that the next step is surgery to remove the affected organ after which it should be much more manageable,” Baird wrote at the time..
