Reception

Byron Coley said, "this LP takes the show's three or four long, twisting pieces and breaks them up into a piker's dozen of shorter but no less twisting 'songs'. The basic sound is of four tuxedoed gents bravely fighting the incessant urge-to-riff that rattles around in the subconscious of most electro-musicians."[7] Andrea Enthal at Spin said "guitars screech in sinewy saws like an 80s answer to the saxophone while Jack Brewer recites latter-day beatnikisms in a voice that sounds, at times, like the cartoon character Top Cat's sidekick, Choo Choo."[8]
