Gregory Heaney of AllMusic complimented the album with three and half stars out of five, saying, " While it's no shock that the bandmembers had an album like this in them after all this time, Saves the Day's effervescence makes for a pleasant surprise, giving listeners a brief escape from their day into a world filled with poppy hooks and sparkling melody."[28]
