Critical reception
The A.V. Club called the album "superb," writing that it "surveys a bleak world riddled with disease, warped values, corruption, and constant surveillance, but not without a sturdy sense of humor and a winning pop-art playfulness."[9] LA Weekly deemed it "a mixture of trippy, band-oriented backpack hip-hop with a few guitar-rock tunes thrown in, and at least three or four solid singles."[10]
