Ned Raggett of AllMusic wrote an enthusiastic review and awarded Blowhard four out of five stars, saying it "kicks up a rough, aggressively produced stink" and "guitars and bass both show the expected in-your-face, heavily produced crunch from said band, artily aggressive and all the better for it." [2]
All tracks are written by Tom Flynn, Gary Held, Bob McDonald and Mike Morasky.
