Four Lads Who Shook the Wirral

Critical reception

• Stewart Mason, AllMusic: "Half Man Half Biscuit released this album within one calendar year of its predecessor, 1997's Voyage to the Bottom of the Road , and perhaps that accounts for the somewhat lackluster feel. here is enough of interest here to appeal to the converted, but newcomers should perhaps start elsewhere."
• Simon Williams, NME: "Chances of cracking open the notoriously fickle American market: slimmer than Lena Zavaroni's mop handle."
