Critical reception

AllMusic wrote that "some bands offer up everything they have on their first album, and some bands just get started; Buffalo Tom indicates that this band was clearly in the latter category, but if they had a way to go in the originality sweepstakes, there was no arguing they had plenty of talent and potential."[5]

gollark: The main question is how to get spiders in bulk, I suppose.
gollark: You can probably just use regular spiders and most people will run away, honestly.
gollark: It's probably mostly nonlethal, cheap *and* a very good deterrent!
gollark: So fire spiders into crowds? Interesting idea.
gollark: If I were into harming government officials I'd probably want to minimize the chances of me being harmed.
