Akin to their other releases in 1990s, Be Careful What You Wish For experiments with traditional rock music structures, in contrast to their early 1980s recordings in power electronics genre. It is a concept album[2] and is widely regarded as the band's "highest-profile release."[3]

AllMusic[4]

Stewart Mason of AllMusic described the album as "a remarkable slice of abstract drones by guitarist Gary Mundy, occasionally colored by Philip Best's barely audible, mantra-like vocals and Stuart Dennison's extremely minimal (often beat-free) drumming." He also stated that "Those who think Nine Inch Nails are the ultimate sonic terrorists will be scared silly."[4] Everett Jang Perdue of Trouser Press criticized the album for "leaning too hard in a rock direction" and described it as "the band's blandest."[3]
