Critical reception
AllMusic called the album "a surprising success," writing that "listeners may not be sure what to make of Super Junky Monkey, but anyone looking for a unique take on rock and metal would surely find themselves greatly amused and delighted." Trouser Press wrote that "Super Junky Monkey bring the chops and enormous flexibility to their funhouse vision of modern music, but sometimes crazy shit is just crazy shit." The Baltimore Sun called the band "eclectic" and "daring," writing that "'Kioku no netsuzou' alternates between crunchy Metallica-style power riffs and angular, King Crimson dissonance before dropping a few rap-style rhymes."
