Critical reception

The Washington Post said that "many of the album's songs are pithy rockers that recall both the elementary attack and the adolescent attitude of the Stooges." [4] The Philadelphia Inquirer wrote: "On the masterfully developed 'Onion Field', ominous sustained-guitar sounds establish the framework, while vocalist Kevin issues attitude-heavy pronouncements that energize the rhythm section." [5]
