Robert Christgau noted that "once again the most striking track is a slow country-folk rip."[6] The New York Times wrote that Soul Asylum "plays explosive speed-rock in jubilant major keys, the sound of frustration transmuted into sheer momentum."[9] The Advocate deemed the album "professional level garage band music that embodies the very spirit of rock and roll."[10] The Los Angeles Daily News concluded that the band "has moved beyond its punk roots without sacrificing its raw power."[7]
