Rock Hard 8.0/10 [8]

The Los Angeles Times noted that Rhino Bucket's "sound comes from their years listening to the euphoric racket of AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Cheap Trick and Kiss, among other hard-rock heroes from the 1970s." [9] The Buffalo News concluded that "Georg Dolivo's sandblaster voice and the tight no-frills (roots metal?) band can't quite overcome the lack of inspiration in the songwriting." [7]

AllMusic wrote: "The riffs are more important [than] the song and, in the band's favor, they come up with a fair share of solid hooks." [6]
