AllMusic |     [2] |
Trouser Press | mixed[3] |
Andy Kellman of AllMusic gave the album 4 out of 5 stars, commenting that "the record epitomizes the spirit of the exciting late-'70s/early-'80s crossbreeding that took place between punk and reggae."[2] Ira Robbins of Trouser Press called the album "intriguing, if not entirely successful".[3] David Katz of Fact wrote, "the New Age Steppers' eponymous debut is a messy, self-indulgent set that points in several directions at once, ultimately forming a sonic marker of an era when the link between punk and dub was anything but tenuous."[4]
