Critical reception

Chuck Eddy from Entertainment Weekly felt the album "is less pretentious, more varied, and more fun. This time he tries to sing, and while he retains the electronic keyboard doodling he started out with, here he uses it as a break in the action rather than as an end in itself."[3]
