Critical reception

edit

AllMusic wrote that the album "features a high degree of instrumental complexity, something that turned other punk rock folks off."[2] Trouser Press wrote: "Moving a giant step forward in instrumental complexity, Milk Milk Lemonade intertwines guitars and voices with more care, skill and diversity than the band has ever previously displayed."[4] Portland Mercury wrote that the album "remains a bona fide punk classic, and probably the band’s best-known release."[6]
