Critical reception
CMJ New Music Monthly thought that the album "displays a band eye-ball deep in punk tradition that's so thoroughly absorbed its influences that comparisons and parallels are moot."[6] Miami New Times determined that the new songs "swagger with more assurance and confidence than the frantic older stuff."[7] The Bradenton Herald called the album "hot trailer trash punk flavored with searing '50s roadhouse piano."[8]
AllMusic wrote that "though the songwriting is a bit limited—it's hard to find a hook anywhere on the record—its gut-wrenching, visceral rush is harder and more punk than most of the Humpers punk-revivalist contemporaries."[3]
