John Bush from AllMusic said that "it had to be questioned whether the band was getting a little too refined for the tastes of its fans", adding that while "the material isn't as powerful as Blood Run, [...] the trio stretches out its sound in spots".[2] Marc Masters from Pitchfork Media said that "the trio's patented sound [...] remains intact, albeit in slicker form. The problem is that this style holds no surprises 18 years after Unsane first coined it."[3]

Personnel

gollark: Sometimes they disable ones which sort of work but can't clock high enough.
gollark: The names don't actually correspond to any actual size of the transistors. So they can keep "shrinking" as long as some useful metric can be increased.
gollark: I don't think I have any configuration like /etc/network/interfaces would have been either.
gollark: My networking on here is done by NetworkManager, though I use dhcpcd or something on my servers.
gollark: This is on Arch. There is absolutely no chance that no other ones don't have it either.
