Critical reception

In its 4-star review, The Austin Chronicle wrote that "Rick Valentin's lyrics are sharp-edged and hard-sung as ever, he and brother Jim's guitars bouncing off each other like crossed chainsaws." Spin called the album "an energetic look at life-time employment in a young person's game, coloring bemusement and revulsion with ba-ba verses and who-gives-a-damn choruses."
