PopMatters called the album "a quick and dirty blast of lo-fi garage rock that would feel right at home on both a Nuggets compilation and a late-70s NYC punk club." [2] AllMusic called it "both undeniably catchy and just a little strange--power pop confection colliding with psycho-trash style." [7] Tiny Mix Tapes called it "stripped-bare, no-frills garage punk." [8] SF Weekly declared it "a sonic wad of doo-wop and bubblegum-punk-pop that's smashed up and oozing for a rechew somewhere beneath an autoshop desk in Rock 'n' Roll High School." [9]
