Rick Anderson of AllMusic wrote that "while there were still heavy messages to be found in songs like 'Harassment' and 'Nyahbinghi Voyage', the band's jazzbo tendencies were front and center." [5] Trouser Press called the album "Steel Pulse at its most pop-oriented," but lamented the "increasing tendency towards preachy, trite lyrics." [8]
