Critical reception [ edit ]

The Austin Chronicle wrote: "These old dogs haven't learned any new tricks, but with Jack Endino in the producer's chair and Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic, they manage a raucous, post-punk retread that, after the teenaged delinquency of 'Be Good, Child!' goes off like 'Sex Bomb' closing 1982's seminal Album: Generic Flipper ."
