Reception
Sarah Walters, of Manchester Evening News, published a review of Crank It Up, saying "Yes, it's another glistening nugget in their often incoherent brand of obnoxious digital noise, garage beats and hip-hop patter, but this time there's something oddly right about it."
Another review of the single, on music site Noize Makes Enemies, claims "The frenetic-paced ‘Crank It Up’ is, it could be said, the album’s defining track, laying out the rave-reviving, pigeonhole-swerving, youth-defining spirit at its core. It’s a sonic punk-rock-rave monster – a call to arms for a web-savvy generation to “show some love”, and a nod to the file-sharing, myspace-bound, digital revolution that spawned the Leeds-formed 5 piece."

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“But in the reception of metaphysical formula, all depends, as regards their actual and ulterior result, on the pre-existent qualities of that soil of human nature into which they fall—the company they find already present there, on their admission into the house of thought.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“To aim to convert a man by miracles is a profanation of the soul. A true conversion, a true Christ, is now, as always, to be made by the reception of beautiful sentiments.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
