Trouser Press wrote: "Dome abandons conventional song form for a hodgepodge of treated instruments and voices, with lurching mechanical noises infrequently keeping a vague beat; melodies fragment under studio manipulation", calling it "eerie". [7]
All songs written by Bruce Gilbert and Graham Lewis unless otherwise indicated.
