| Trouser Press | unfavourable |
Trouser Press' review was negative, opining that it "uses too much aural gimmickry and tends to meander aimlessly". The New York Times wrote that "most of the album is airy, moody, strangely gripping psychedelic rock-jazz, with guitar and saxophone textures grating against each other in an echo-chamber and a beat that's more implied than stated."
