In an interview with Anthony O'Grady of Rock Australia Magazine on 2 January 1976, band member Les Gock said "We really put a lot work into it. It's really a whole different direction to C'mon We're Taking Over which is where we tried to experiment in the studio. This time we tried to get the band's stage sound onto record and it's worked pretty well I think. Like it's lot more straightforward than C'mon We're Taking Over, but on the other hand, the playing is a lot more controlled and better judged." adding "We really sweated over every detail of it. We worked out exactly what we wanted to do on it, how we wanted it to sound, what sort of energy level we wanted on it."[2]

Reception

Cash Box magazine said "The record is as subtle as a train wreck."[3]
