The album brought together a diverse range of musicians from a range of genres. After Wyatt's largely one-man recordings of the 1980s, Shleep marked a return to featuring other artists as on his 1970s albums; the balance of his discography would follow suit. The Wire named Shleep its record of the year in its annual critics' poll.[5]
