Encyclopedia of Popular Music 3/5 stars[4]

Stephen Thomas Erlewine, in a mixed review for AllMusic, wrote that the album is a continuation of the band's "writing slump" which started with 1993's Sound of White Noise. He said that there aren't many "memorable songs" on the record, and went to call it "transitional album" leading the band to "new, uncharted territory".[2] Stephen Thompson of The A.V. Club found the album to be "aggressive to the point of being exhausting".[3]
