AllMusic[2]

In his review for The Clay People, Greg Prato of allmusic praised the group embracing a more organic sound that would appeal to heavy metal enthusiasts. Aiding & Abetting gave the album a positive review, saying "Clay People has infused the metal guts with something very alive."[3] Sonic Boom lambasted Kernon's production as being responsible for "turning an excellent Coldwave act into nothing more than a glorified Metal band" but praised Daniel Neet's vocal contributions.[4]
