Reception
In his review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek notes that "this is an inverse portrait of Ornette Coleman's Prime Time band, a group that, at least here, deeply influenced Morris, not only in terms of composition and improvisation, but his tonal technical approach to the guitar."
In a review for JazzTimes Larry Appelbaum states "It's a white-knuckle, noisy, wild trip of a CD, great for head banging."
