The album was uploaded for streaming download on MySpace on December 8, 2009.

Alternative Press reviewer Evan Lucy rated the album 3/5, saying that "Fans of We The Kings' debut will undoubtedly find something to hold onto with Smile Kid, but for those who were less than enamored with the band's pop-punk blend will likely stay that way." He said although the band "have expanded their previously narrow sound", he was still dissuaded by the band's failure to branch out musically; "Until the band are willing to step outside further outside the musical box and Clark is willing to belt it out, We The Kings will remain good, not great".
