reception
Madeline Ward of the online magazine PULP wrote that the two songs in the single may not have the lyrical elegance of earlier songs like Monstrance Clock , but they would be very memorable. The publication shows that Ghost wouldn't be boring. Despite the ridiculous lyrics and questionable authenticity, the new single is a fun affair. The German magazine Visions led Kiss the Go-Goat on the list of the 25 best music videos of the year of 2019.
