A SoundsXP review called it "a loud and brutal snarl of spiky guitar pop"."[http://www.soundsxp.com/2845.shtml Single Review: Blood Red Shoes 'Stitch Me Back']", SoundsXP, 2 March 2006, retrieved 2010-03-29 Mark Beaumont of 'NME' suggested that "Stitch Me Back" when performed live sounded "like someones thrown a drumkit, 50 mallets and a naked and shaved bassist into a high security ward for psychopathic cannibals and recorded the result".Beaumont Mark "[https://www.nme.com/reviews/maximo-park/8292 Maximo Park/!!!/Hot Club De Paris/Blood Red Shoes/Shockwaves NME Awards Show, Astoria, London]", 'NME', retrieved 2010-03-29 Sam Shepherd of musicOMH was also impressed, stating "Stitch Me Back is hectic, it's shambolic and it is thoroughly exciting".Shepherd, Sam (2006) "[http://www.musicomh.com/singles/blood-red-shoes_0206.htm Blood Red Shoes - Stitch Me Back (Try Harder)]", musicOMH, retrieved 2010-03-29
