Jason Anderson of allmusic gave the album a negative review, calling Firetribe "slightly ill-defined" and "one of the group's lesser offerings", but noted that the band would improve on following releases.[3] Aiding & Abetting credited the band for providing the industrial music scene with a unique personality.[4]
