With the return of former members Iñaki Egaña, Miguel Morales and Tito Duarte, it was described by AllMusic's Andy Kellman as "a very slight improvement" over the previous two albums. He praised the musicianship as "top-notch and professional", but criticised the vocals and lyrics, singling out "Sex Surprise Big Surprise" as the worst example.[1]
