Critical reception
Variety wrote that "Wasif explores rich guitar-based psychedelic pop that’s less introspective and slightly heavier than the songs found on his 2005 self-titled debut."[8] LA Weekly called the record "an unabashed rock record, with hints of classic rock, prog and post-punk underscoring Wasif’s euphonious vocal melodies and fascination with the spiritual."[5] The Dallas Observer called it "a great collection of psychedelic folk rock that recalls Dylan fronting Black Sabbath with Ravi Shankar producing."[9]
