Thom Jurek of AllMusic described the group as "inventive and artfully canny."[1] Mark Allan Powell maintained that the group "priortized musical excellence and lyrical depth over commercial appeal or even accessibility."[2] The band never achieved commercial viability and disbanded when Eugene was found dead in his recording studio on March 20, 2000, from an undiagnosed brain aneurism.[3] Valadez died on September 20, 2013.[4]
