Critical reception
Rolling Stone called the album "skeletal rock with gravely roughed-up guitars."[6] Entertainment Weekly wrote: "To make their potent retro cocktail, Verbena add a dash of Iggy Pop swagger and a measure of T. Rex power chords."[12] The Stranger thought that "the distinctly crumbly crust of grunge is detectable among the sexy hot rock this time around."[13] The Boston Globe declared that "Verbena's grimy guitar rock, as well as the potent vocal interplay between [AA] Bondy and bassist Anne Marie Griffin, still sounds as deadly as a rattlesnake."[14]
