AllMusic[1]

John Bush of AllMusic wrote, "Though none of the previous Green Velvet club favorites are reprised for his album, Cajmere has created a raft of future classics, all along the same lines."[1] Peter Margasak of Chicago Reader commented that "his austere mix of robotic rhythms, analog synth squelches, and occasionally hallucinatory lyrics sounds like nothing else out there."[2] Richard Brophy of Hot Press described the album as "a minefield of personal traumas and reflections on the woes of our world".[3]
