[[Byron Coley]] at ''[[Spin (magazine)|Spin]]'' said the album was, "organically interchangeable with any other like-sized hunk they've previously coughed up. It would be unjust, though, not to mention that the band sounds better than ever. Unfortunately, this band’s instrumental sound must forever take a backseat to the wormy vocal histrionics of Mr. Jello Biafra."<ref>{{cite magazine| magazine= [[Spin (magazine)|Spin]] | title=Spins|author=[[Byron Coley]]| date=February 1986|issue=10|page=30}}</ref>
