Shock of Daylight was well-received by critics. The Big Takeover described it as "a triumphant comeback for, a nice return from the interesting but obviously non-comercial All Fall Down, an LP whose lack of salibility effectively got 'em booted from Korova/Warners, and this first release on Static is a reminder of why they're such a great band". Melody Maker described the EP as "probably the most fearlessly outgoing music The Sound have produced since Jeopardy".

Famous quotes containing the words critical and/or reception:

    You took my heart in your hand
    With a friendly smile,
    With a critical eye you scanned,
    Then set it down,
    And said: It is still unripe,
    Better wait awhile;
    Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

    Aesthetic emotion puts man in a state favorable to the reception of erotic emotion.... Art is the accomplice of love. Take love away and there is no longer art.
    Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)
