Q described the album as "nine painfully slow nuggets of sonic indigestion." [5] Trouser Press noted that "its reliance on in-jokes ... and calculatedly rakish rhythmic stratagems make it the aural equivalent of a vanity press book." [6]

Recurring is the fourth and final Spacemen 3 studio album, released in early 1991 on Fire Records. The band had broken up prior to the release of the album.

However, it is generally considered to be more song-oriented than its largely abstract predecessor. The title is in part a pun on the band's name.

The opening track "Shove" was released as the band's first single.
