Trouser Press called the album "an interesting and successful example of dub technique."[2] The New York Times compared the album to Bovell's recent I Wah Dub, calling LKJ in Dub "a less gimmicky, more emotionally satisfying piece of work."[7] The Boston Globe wrote that "there are some nice grooves here, but with no voice to sing, no soloing instruments, not even a stray Frippertronic to hang onto, it's hard to recommend this album."[8]
