Critical reception

Rollie Pemberton of Stylus Magazine gave the album a grade of C, saying: "Somewhat of a backhanded recommendation, Hangar 18 may still be worthy of rotation at your next house party." [3] Thomas Quinlan of Exclaim! said: "The title of their debut album may drip with sarcasm, but even if it may not go multi-platinum, Hangar 18 have an underground classic on their hands." [2] Ryan Romana of XLR8R called it "a satisfying listen." [4]

On July 7, 2004, Spin included it on the "More New Music to Hear Now" list. [5]
