In a retrospective review for the AllMusic website, critic Dean Carlson described the album as one that "shines in its muddily produced, tonally confident swagger" and "avoids the sputter of careerist garage rock for a spectacularly bleary haunted house feel."[1] Carlson summed up by calling the album, "one of 1984's best garage-punk releases."[1] Scott Schinder and Ira Robbins, writing for Trouser Press, called it, "as good a '60s punk record as any contemporary combo is likely to make".[2]
