The Washington Post noted that "the sometimes-realized intention is to be trippy, although a few of the 14 meandering tracks on this 70-minute album are more soporific than transcendent." [5]
All tracks are written by Sky Cries Mary except "2000 Light Years from Home" by Jagger/Richards and "We Will Fall" by the Stooges.
