Spin gave "Leave No Trace" a score of 6/10. Critic Marc Hogan writes, "this Los Angeles quintet distilled a refreshing blend of African influences and Hebrew-language vocals on their 2009 self-titled debut...Though still sunny and hooky, 'Leave No Trace' lacks the enigmatic spark of its predecessor, especially now that the words are more readily understandable."[10]
