Music historian Colin Larkin wrote that the album was "well-received" and "consolidated Cabaret Voltaire's pivotal position on the UK's dance scene".[2] Martin Aston in Q Magazine called the album "nothing radical but by their own standards, a rewarding leap sideways."[1] A positive review by Music from the Empty Quarter noted the dichotomy engendered in the album, stating that "[A]nyone expecting a return of the Cabs harder sounds... can forget it" but that "[T]he familiar unorthodox sounds lie in the undercurrents, ensuring that it's never an easy movement."[7]
