Reception

The All About Jazz review by Troy Collins states "A mature and solid release, Rempis demonstrates a keen sensibility for leaving space in music that could easily be overburdened by endless vamping and excessive sonic clutter."

The JazzTimes review by Brian Gilmore notes "Like many albums in this genre that use unfamiliar lineups and utilize little if any melody, Rip Tear Crunch is alternately stark and dense."
