Critical reception


The New York Times wrote that the band "deploys a manic punk velocity, and sprinkles its music with sine-wave oscillator noises and space-documentary sound bites; otherwise its material is fairly faceless."[7] The Austin American-Statesman concluded that, as "a celebration of robotic white-guy stiffness, this music has the soul of a Jetsons episode."[8]
