Critical reception
On Metacritic, the album received a 68, which indicates "generally favourable reviews", based on 11 reviews. Exclaim! Magazine writer Alex Hudson wrote "It's certainly not going to produce the next "Viceroy" or "Chamber of Reflection," but it's an exceedingly pleasant listen — the kind of thing that's the perfect soundtrack for working and studying, or to make chores a little more tolerable." Pitchfork writer Daniel Bromfield wrote "Though each track is named for where it was recorded, there’s not much to distinguish one stop from another, and though you could connect the locations into a journey, these tracks don’t form an arc but play as if stacked atop one another." == Point of view ==
