Contemporary critical reception of the album has been generally positive. AllMusic praised the album, calling it better than the other pioneering deathrock album, Christian Death's Only Theatre of Pain.[1] Trouser Press wrote that the album "contains most of their best songs", calling it "consistently creepy".[2] Spin, on the other hand, opined that the album "never escapes Christian Death's shadow."[3]
