AllMusic
Chicago Tribune

The Chicago Tribune deemed the album "a 14-track dread- and chaos-permeated industrial slugfest, built around singer Bliss Blood's drained, spoken-word ramblings and Scott Ayers' guitar hash and mechanistic studio manipulations." The Dallas Morning News praised the "inventive guitar and samples Ms. Blood's sassy singing."

Jason Anderson of AllMusic called the album "a fine first purchase for new fans, as it is nothing if not representative of Pain Teens' sonic assault."
