Charles Deppner of Ink19 described the album as "some real repugnant punk rock...some of their best burnt offerings skewered on the shish kebobs of hell".^[2] Adam Bregman of Allmusic gave the album a 4-star rating, describing it as "their most satisfying record" and "the beginning of a new Dwarves, no longer a freak show, fistfight-type outfit with shows that last 15 minutes, but one that plays real songs, had a set list, and left the club unbloodied".^[3]
