    AllMusic     [5]

    Tim DiGravina of AllMusic called They "remarkably accomplished" and "filled with potent, dark humor, but its gentle spirit and artistic puns make for a compelling listen."[5] Trouser Press wrote that "Hall's black humor meshes nicely with Dogbowl's more romantic inclinations."[6]
