Allmusic 4/5 stars[2]

The Allmusic review by Sean Westergaard awarded the album 4 stars stating "The level of communication between players is stunning, developing lurching, spastic grooves that then get blown apart like ducks in a shooting gallery... Certainly not for all tastes, this is a noisy, fun listen.".[2]
