Upon its release, the album only reached number 61 in the UK Albums Chart, becoming a relative commercial failure compared to previous releases, although it was still somewhat successful for a remix album with minimal promotion, and for a remix compilation, as its contents were previously released on the band's twelve-inch singles. The album received mixed to positive reviews from critics and was the band's final album before splitting up.
