Jason Lymangrover of AllMusic found that the album's music more closely resembled "mall-punk" in the vein of "the type of rock you might hear on Radio Disney", but wrote that "the girls do manage to channel the punk spirit of yesteryear with bratty adolescent rebelliousness", while highlighting the tracks "that break away from bratty exclamations and explore the true issues of being a teenage girl".[1]Robert Christgau found the album "mildly enjoyable", describing it as "bratty-dreaming-slutty, its assorted putdowns less punk than they thought".[2]
