Reception
Steve Kurutz of Allmusic criticized Ging Ging for being "difficult album to listen to" that "create[s] a near impenetrable aural wall for listeners." Despite this, "he concluded that during the album's softer moments, "Regarding Mary" and "There's More" among them, the album does achieve moments of beauty."[4] Aiding & Abetting praised Betsy Martin's performance and the band for drawing from a broad ranges of influences.[5] Exclaim! critic Matt Mernagh gave it mixed review, saying "about the only thing Purr Machine won't do on their full-length debut is create a headache with their odd sounding goth electronica and fuzzy guitar."[6]
