Critical reception
The Washington Post thought that the songs "show plenty of Ramones (and Buzzcocks) influence, both in their simple, speedy melodies and the bratty sense of humor."[7] Phoenix New Times deemed the album "16 tracks of tortured love and loss" and "a more eclectic bunch of songs than on Love Is Dead."[8]
AllMusic wrote: "Judging by the ambivalent commercial reaction to this wonderful slab of plastic, even if the MTX record the Rubber Soul of today's music era, they will nevertheless be ignored."[3]
