Chul Gugich of Beats Per Minute gave the album a 73 out of 100, saying, "Grayskul has done its part in keeping Seattle hip hop weird and unpredictable."[ 3] Kyle Fleck of The Stranger described it as "a sprawling collection of 17 tracks that broadens Grayskul's core aesthetic while maintaining their trademark dark humor and densely packed wordplay, with a diverse set of beats of a quality befitting the upper echelon of the underground."[ 6] Azaria C. Podplesky of Seattle Weekly stated that "a variety of lyrical content and futuristic beats keep things interesting."[ 7]
