Critical reception
[edit]The Toronto Star wrote that "the band carries it off with enough energy to make the borrowings seem their own and with enough enthusiasm to overshadow the occasional lyrical lapses, the guitar hero moves and all the other hackneyed hard-rock trappings that the band has adopted."[5]
