Reception
editThe song was referred to by NME as "a bonkers track, of course, which is absolutely apt for a band that always had a strong sense of the surreal" and "a brilliant epilogue for a singular career". They further suggested the single may be the last release by the band.[4]
The track also appeared on the 2016 compilation "Zoom! The Best of 1995–2016".
