The Arts Desk (UK) Gives "The Gus" 4 stars

“Delicate dynamics are shored up by the undulating power and to and fro time signature of “Taking Baby Steps”, while the weighty “What If I Go off with Bob?”, featuring the muscular chops of Dinsaur Jr's J Mascis, possesses a simple sense of purpose, both musically and lyrically, that is reminiscent of prime Velvet Underground.”
