Critical reception
At the time of issuance the album made a great impression on Billboard critics. In the review of May 3 1980, they wrote: "This is a truly offbeat album which mixes '60s organ dominated psychedelia, new wave, heavy metal and world savvy lyrics into an intoxicating brew. Tom Gray's passionate vocals have enough aural sprawl and power to make the lyrics credible."[1]
