There are some songs that would have made it in the EP. For example, Stories,[6] Wish You Away,[7][8][9] and Maika's Love Song[10] (which is now Burn The Night Away).

The EP received mixed to positive reviews, a review from Kill Your Stereo said "The combination of quality song-writing and a gifted vocalist is going to ensure TFT build themselves any army of fans over the next twelve months." Hybrid Magazine was also pleased with the EP "This is a time when the band really takes the chance to present a message. A message in the disguise of complex drums sequences."
Jo-Ann Greene of AllMusic was mixed with the effort but was impressed enough to compliment the EP " A perfect mix of neo-rock, indie pop, and punk."
Sputnikmusic was very happy with the EP "It is incredibly rare to find a group so young executing a record this well, but all of the signs just seem to add up. Each member has impressive individual talent and is able to express it with one another."
RockFreaks was optimistic "It's an EP with which TFT state "We know what the f*ck we're doing" in capital letters, as they seem to have read the book on writing catchy rock songs from cover to cover."
