Critical reception

edit

Sarah Walters of CityLife gave the song a positive review stating:

YOU need three things to appreciate Tim Scott's brand of guitar-mashing properly: sunshine, a sandy beach and a pina colada. Built over banging house vibes that switch between a party in Ibiza and the soundtrack to a computer console racing game, Cataclysmic Pink is an astute meeting of worlds - a sonic car crash you might expect to end in tears, but one Scott's utterly exotic style of guitar playing manages to meld incredibly satisfyingly.[1]
