Reception
Editors at AllMusic rated this album 3.5 out of 5 stars, with critic Heather Phares writing that "the moment that Black Bay captures is so unique that it might be difficult for Silver Moth to replicate, but it's still a fine document of a replenishing creative retreat in a time of loss and uncertainty".
