Critical reception
Trouser Press called the album "a bit closer to conventional rock’n’roll and is the better for it," writing that the band "discovered melody, producing musically and lyrically impressive material like 'Next', 'Anymore' and 'Walk on Water'." The Los Angeles Times called the album "a stubbornly independent account of post-teen alienation; a record that mixes folk, jazz, blues and high-speed punk styles without regard to radio programming dictates." The Wisconsin State Journal wrote that the band's "musical style includes radical tempo changes from lazy blues to panicy punk within a single song."
