Steve Schnee from AllMusic questioned the decision to have Cameron Allan produce the album, believing his skills to be "muddy and lifeless at best," adding that "the production not only reined in the band's considerable talent, it stifled any energy and excitement that they may have had." Schnee said "Stephen Cummings still sounded confident, but ultimately seemed detached from the material, as if he was already going through the motions." Perhaps he was already planning his escape to a solo career, which came to fruition when the band split up shortly after this album was released.
