It has a much heavier edge than Discount's previous two albums. The band split up later that year.[5]
Critical reception
AllMusic called the album "an amazing swan song," writing that "jagged guitars and bizarre timing make the record distinctive, and the sturdy punk backbone remains intact enough to give the energetic tracks a pummeling core."[2] Spin wrote that "Discount bust out ... with punky power-pop songs and untempered female angst."[1] CMJ New Music Report wrote that "with head-boppin' melodies, Discount puts the punk back into the spunky girl rock genre."[6]

gollark: I'm not saying that, just that we can't yet set up test societies and do randomized controlled trials.
gollark: > I would agree that knowledge passed down from generations is good, but with one major condition. [...]Science doesn't "prove" things and social things are VERY HARD to test.
