Critical reception

The album received favorable reviews with The Irish Times referring to the album as a "smart collection of intelligent and sensitive rock...[that will] do the heart and soul good.[2] Hot Press Magazine reported: "Last time round, we described them as "atmospheric indie", but 'Arrhythmia' is composed of bleaker soundscapes, more reminiscent of Joy Division".[1][4] Kelly Crisp of The Rosebuds said of the album: "this album [Arrhythmia] is luxurious, and a reminder that we're here now, making art and loving beautiful music".[5]
