Reception

The AllMusic review by William York states "Such moments certainly make the album worthwhile for fans, but due to its somewhat inconsistent, under-edited nature (i.e., it is simply too long), This Is My House doesn't rate as the best starting point for folks interested in this group."[1]

The Down Beat review by John Ephland says "The material at times seems somewhat colorless, the structures maybe a tad rangy and undeveloped. Still, the band's emotional and stylistic range, Kessler and Sandstrom's very fine doubled-up-basses, not to mention the instrumental variety from everyone, suggest an exciting, loving caldron of free-jazz, bop, and hardcore punk-jazz."[3]
