Critical reception
In its review, Allmusic suggests that the album and its "even noisier follow-up, Pussy Whipped, might be all the Bikini Kill one needs". Characterizing the compilation as "[a]ggressive, lippy, and none-too-disciplined", Rough Guides reviewer Owen James noted that it "nonetheless managed to sound like a triumph of female bonding against the odds". Rolling Stone, which gave the compilation 4 stars, described it as "caustic, daring, and shamelessly didactic, a two-by-four to the chops of patriarchy".
