Critical reception
Trouser Press called the album "the band’s most delicate recording, showing an early folky vein."[6] The Spin Alternative Record Guide wrote that the album "contains potentially hazardous levels of low-fi noisemaking and free-association poetry."[3] Reviewing the album's 1995 reissue, SF Weekly wrote that "all of the Thinking Fellers' trademark elements appear in nascent glory, from alternatively tuned string-tornado rave-ups and enigmatic home recordings to quirky pop distillations and jokey goofs."[5]
