In a review for AllMusic, critic Thom Jurek wrote: "Of his many gifts, two of his most developed are his journalistic eye for detail, and having one ear always to the ground. This time out, the view is sharply contrasting from one song to the next. Politically, this is Cockburn's angriest record since World of Wonders or Stealing Fire... It is pointless to place this record in a pecking order with Cockburn's other work; that it adds to that body of work immeasurably is compliment enough. However, to say that it is necessary because it can cause self- and world-examination in any listener who plays it through is as high a compliment as can be offered."[1] Geoff Ashmun of PopMatters called the album "spellbinding" and noted "Cockburn's as present and relevant as he's ever been better."[4] In a review for The Weekend Australian, Ian Cuthbertson described that it "takes off on a fascinating journey of witnessing and protest, prayer and despair, imagery and ambience", and praised it as "so fresh and inspired it's hard to believe it's his 27th".[3]
