Jim Smith, in his review of the album for AllMusic, said the group sounded "like a fired-up, pared down version of the Texas Playboys".[2]

gollark: Bold of you to assume Chrome obeys the "spec".
gollark: What? That's not what the linked page thing said.
gollark: I have Chrome, but it's an outdated version with contragoogulous patches.
gollark: This is probably documented somewhere.
gollark: I don't know. This just checks if the function for it exists.
