Critical reception
Eastwood received a very poor review in the NME—who labelled the album "a 19-track procession of pretend disco and A-level Aqua novelty wank"—and sold poorly.

Singles and chart positions
Cognoscenti vs. Intelligentsia reached number 4 on the UK Singles chart on 25 December 1999. It was also number 1 in John Peel's Festive Fifty in 1999. "Kenny" had previously been released in a different version called "Oh My God They Killed Kenny" and failed to chart, although it reached number 6 in the 1998 Festive Fifty. Following the band's split from EMI, "Inertia Kicks" was released as a self-published limited edition single in a five track format ineligible for inclusion in the UK Singles Chart.
