Release and commercial performance

Critical reception

The Los Angeles Times noted that, "after two albums of all groove and no song, the thrill is back at the incendiary level you'd expect from a band that descended from Northern Ireland's melodic punk boy wonders the Undertones." The Orlando Sentinel wrote that "Tingle" "is a breezy love song that lopes along and is pure pop at its best." The Houston Chronicle called the album "a strong, no-nonsense, uncompromising rock 'n' roll record from one of music's bright new bands."
