Critical reception
The Independent wrote that Pram's "dark playfulness has a woozy ambience which makes this a very friendly oddity indeed."[7] CMJ New Music Monthly called North Pole Radio Station "the band's most skeletal album to date," writing that "for the most part, Pram's newfound economy yields brilliant results."[8]
