  The Toronto Star wrote that the album "returns to the punk-tinged sounds and loose feel of the Inspirals' debut, Life." The Chicago Tribune opined that "singer Tom Hingley bogs things down with his syrupy, overwrought vocals." The Los Angeles Times noted the "reverb-heavy guitars, grinding organs and brooding lyrics."
