Reception

The Allmusic review by James Christopher Monger awarded the album 3.5 stars stating "It’s a melting pot to be sure, and the band has a tendency to go heavy on the atmosphere and light on the hooks, but there’s never any doubt that it’s a brew tended over by some awfully talented cooks.".
