Reception

The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 4 stars stating "Equal parts rock and free jazz, V as in Victim is a weird journey through a number of styles and sounds -- there's some grooves, some soundscapes and some brutally dissonant variations on free jazz. More often than not, the excursions are successful."
