reception
Siggy Zielinsky from Babyblauen Seiten gives the album a rating of 11/15: “One would most accurately describe this music as nihilistic funk metal. All of this, of course, dominated by the neurotic Mickey Mouse voice and the nimble, funky bass skills of Les Claypool. There is also a Fripp-influenced, tinkling guitar and a brilliant drummer. Not recommended for people who only use melodic song structures. Pure power and weird! "
