The album reached No. 74 on the UK Albums Chart.[3] Two singles reached the UK top 40: "Too Much, Too Little, Too Late" (No. 20) and "I'll See You Around" (No. 26).

Critical reception

The Sunday Mirror wrote: "Quirky guitar spankers with funny shades and a Johnny Mathis fixation mix the fast ones with the slow ones for a golden blend of fine roast pop."[4] The Independent thought that "with their huge guitar riffs and layers of harmonies, these Midlanders offer a refreshing take on classic 1980s American rawk with a tongue-in-cheek dab of Queen's pomposity and a nod to the power-pop excellence of Cheap Trick."[5]

AllMusic thought that "Silver Sun have created a disc that is a blatant throwback to mid-70s power-pop ... and while at times the formula works, it often falls flat."[6]
