Reception

Reviewing the single, Kerrang! awarded "James Dean-esque" a rating of five out of five, describing the song as "Classy punk 'n' roll ... a simple tale of unrequited love ... delivered with a raised middle digit and the classic line 'I ain't gonna bother with her cos she ain't gonna do it with me'".[2] The review also praised the B-sides, highlighting the "full throttle guitars and shuffling drums" on "Billy the Bunt" and describing "Rapid Pulsing Breaths" as "gentle and acoustic-sounding like The Pogues at their most depressed".[2]
