Critical reception
The New York Times wrote that "the sounds are swathed in reverberation or veiled by distortion; distant rumbles and swooshes compete for the foreground with drumbeats and bass lines, hovering chords and metallic clatter."

In 2015, Fact placed it at number 10 on the "50 Best Trip-Hop Albums of All Time" list.
