The single's B-side is a live recording of "Bleed" with an extended jam linking into "What Would I Want? Sky" recorded May 27, 2009 at Henry Miller Memorial Library, Big Sur, CA.[http://pitchfork.com/news/36753-animal-collectives-avey-tare-reveals-all-about-new-ep-film-tour-hiatus/ Animal Collective's Avey Tare Reveals All About New EP, Film, Tour Hiatus]
'New Musical Express' called it a "resplendent orgy of Afrobeat pop with touches of hard house, like Orbital double-dropping with Fela Kuti or Vampire Weekend in space." In 2012, 'Stereogum' ranked the song number two on their list of the 10 greatest Animal Collective songs, and in 2015, 'Paste' ranked the song number one on their list of the 12 greatest Animal Collective songs.
