Reviews
The album received mostly positive reviews.
- Laut.de awarded four out of five possible points. The album is highly praised, the song Flyentology alone attracts negative attention:
“El-P grabs the entire, undivided attention and turns it mercilessly through the mangle. Even after the thirtieth run, the complexity of his compositions cannot even begin to be grasped. [...] Only "Flyentology" with Nine Inch Nails ' Trent Reznor, of course the single release, seems a little simpler to me and therefore falls slightly off in comparison. "
