Critical reception was generally favourable. Simon Sweetman was the most enthusiastic, calling it "their third best record".[4] Graham Reid of the New Zealand Herald criticised the unevenness of the album, with highlights such the title track and "Big Black Bus" equalled by the low point of "De Dog". However, he noted that even the band's albums considered classics were similarly inconsistent and that when the album "locks into place, that old acidic-but-sentimental magic remains mercifully untarnished."[2]

gollark: It's annoying and I dislike it.
gollark: Discord has done an ANNOYING THING! If I switch channels now in the webapp, it temporarily loads in a bunch of rectangles which look vaguely like (okay, not at all like, really) regular chat.
gollark: Yes, spidertron exists now?
gollark: The one making Factorio seems pretty good, they even have weekly devblogs.
