The Charlotte Observer called the album "teeth-gnashing thrash-core," writing that the "pulverizing, heavy guitar chords collide with rat-tat-tat drumming for World War III."[9] The Arizona Daily Star noted that the album title "is a testament to [D.R.I.'s] unrelenting attack."[10] The Wisconsin State Journal wrote that the band's "still blindly and wantonly cranking out metallic, old-school, hard-core punk rock."[11]
