Reception

The Allmusic review by Ned Raggett awarded the album 3 stars and states "Kuepper's all-around abilities — he plays all the guitars and most of the bass — readily come to the fore, with his own particular combination of psychedelic murk and straightforward playing in evidence throughout. It resists all trends, and all for the better at that".^[2]
