Critical reception edit

In a review of Florist Fired, Pitchfork called the band "one of Secretly Canadian's first and finest discoveries."[8] In its 4-star review, AllMusic wrote that Today It's You is "reminiscent of indie-rock in the early 1980s -- touches of the occasionally dark, Velvet Underground-influenced jangle of the Feelies, Mission of Burma, the less cutesy work of the Television Personalities, even the later work of Wire."[9] The Austin Chronicle wrote that "the jarring, twisted sensibilities of Indianapolis' Marmoset embody the best qualities of early Sebadoh, halting time and dissonant guitars building a teetering jungle-gym for Jorma Whitaker's odd, brown-paper-bag vocals."[10] Tiny Mix Tapes panned Tea Torndao, writing that "no display of intellectual gymnastics can redeem a collection of pop songs as joyless as this."[3]

Exclaim! deemed The Record In Red to be one of the best records of 2001.[11] Indianapolis paper NUVO wrote that the band "could be considered local legends."[12]
