"Mainline" peaked at No. 34 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart.[5]

Critical reception

edit

AllMusic wrote that "songs such as the album-opening 'Mainline' and 'Losing My Mind' would've sounded splendid on Headbanger's Ball circa 1989."[2] The Lincoln Journal Star thought that the album "finds a more musically mature, but still hard-rocking, Dupree playing a batch of songs he wrote for himself and not the band."[6] The Times & Transcript called it a "cheesened lump of boozey bluesy riff-raffling mucho-macho metal pop drivel."[1] The Daily Post stated that "the driving, unbridled strength of Dupree's music is not only catchy, but also rather addictive."[7]
