The Boston Herald described the songs as "wispy but not wimpy ballads" and compared his work to Neil Young. City Pages argued that "The few strong characters here aren't easy to identify with (one is a purple anteater), but the theremin-addled pop paean "Space Age Mom" suggests Jurado's lyrical strength." AllMusic regarded the album as "an impressive debut that was sadly overlooked by many people."
