Critical reception

AllMusic senior editor Stephen Thomas Erlewine notes the band's eclectic musical style. He stated: "While they are musically proficient, some of their songs aren't quite up to par. Nevertheless, their debut album is a surprisingly enjoyable effort." Nevertheless, CD Review magazine panned the album, stating: "Though the group aims to be something other than a Gen X conversation piece, much of this debut is pointless dross." Sandy Masuo of the Los Angeles Times gave the album three out of four stars, describing it as "a surreal blend of rough-hewn rock, Gothic Western twang and psychedelic dub."
