Critical Reception
Pitchfork Media writer Mark Richardson said "Oxford Comma" was "damn catchy," while Andrew Grillo of Click Music described it as having a "woozy organ and a half arsed guitar solo that masterfully straddles the line between inept and charmingly unstudied." He elaborated that the afro-beat influence was less evident and finished his review by saying that the song was an "extremely enjoyable ditty that goes some way to justifying the attention they've received over the past year." Robert Forster described "Oxford Comma" as the "best song of the last five years".
