AllMusic[1]

Fear Factory covered "O-O (Where Evil Dwells)" on their album Obsolete.

Critical reception

Trouser Press wrote that "if the album lacks a full load of explosive Foetus audio dynamite, it still packs enough ugliness and venom to corrupt a monastery."[5] Spin wrote that the album "allows Foetus the space to fully unfurl the thick, viscous wordchains he uses for lyrics."[6] Dave Thompson, in Alternative Rock, called the album "disappointing" and "not the full frontal assault one would hope to find."[7] CMJ New Music Report wrote that "the songs all build on heavy, intense tribal percussion overlayed with bits of whiney distorted guitar."[8]
