Composition
Thomas Quinlan of Exclaim! writes that the album sees the group continue their combination of musique concrète and gangsta rap, while deeming it more accessible than their earlier work. Fred Thomas of AllMusic deems it a harsh album that fuses "noise frequencies, brutally dark beats, and MC Daveed Diggs' unhinged, often ugly lyrical flow." "Intro" features rapping over a beatless backdrop of feedback reminiscent of Merzbow. "Dream" features a "ringing bell, white noise and tape hiss", while the next track "Get Up" is built solely around the sound of an alarm clock. The album also features a performance of John Cage's Williams Mix (1951–1953), recorded with Tom Erbe.
