Dork

Michael Cragg of The Guardian rated the album 3 out of 5 stars, complementing Spencer-Smith's "big voice" and the album's "few frayed edges", but felt that the album "plays the emotional bloodletting a little too safe". Writing for Dork, Martin Young noted that the "run of ballads and sky scraping anthems including towering highlight ‘That Part’ hugely impressive" but felt the album "could do with a little bit more dynamism to lighten the heavy atmosphere just a touch".
