Critical reception
The Washington Post wrote that "as usual, the overall effect is adept but underwhelming; Weird Food & Devastation should please the band's fans, but probably won't attract many new ones."[6] The Houston Press called the album "dense, dark, somewhat grungy ... the strangest Connells effort to date."[7]
