AllMusic	[6]

The Morning Call deemed the album "excellent," writing that "it takes a smart band to write painfully accurate songs such as 'Hayseed Timebomb', 'Stranded Outside Tater Knob' and 'Shotgun in a Chevy'." ^[7] Trouser Press concluded that "the album’s trash-filled swamp of beer, No-Doz, junk food, sloppy sex and rifles blurs the us-them culture line in a hyped-up wail of droll debauchery." ^[8]

AllMusic wrote that the band "relies on their comical faux aggression to produce something of hyper-real consequence." ^[6]
