Despite the band having not released an album by this time, Dublin's journalists praised Fight Like Apes after hearing the EP.[5] The band played both Electric Picnic, which was their first major Irish festival,[3] and Hard Working Class Heroes in 2007 on the back of the release of How Am I Supposed to Kill You If You Have All the Guns?[2][3][6] They also performed at the CMJ Music Marathon in New York City.[3][6]
The parents of the band's main songwriter, Pockets, were reported to have been "horrified" when they first heard the EP, labelling the efforts of him and his bandmates as "disgusting".[5] They were said to be displeased with the "electric shocks, digital distortion, blisteringly brutal lyrics and the screechy vocals" of vocalist MayKay.[5]
