The Chicago Tribune wrote: "What makes this trio of pop fanatics from Boston so consistently interesting—their songs so inescapable—is the way they stand the history of rock on its head and rummage through the possibilities."[12] The Calgary Herald noted that the "songs jump from trippy psychedelic dance tracks to loud 'n' proud industrial rockers."[11]
The Orlando Sentinel concluded that "the Cavedogs are that increasing rarity—a group with real depth in its writing, and a truly adventurous approach to recording."[13] The Washington Post deemed the album "energetic and accomplished but rather labored."[14] The San Antonio Express-News considered the album to be "refined grunge pop, mixing abrasive guitars with catchy melodies with just the right dash of psychedelia."[15]
