Release and reception

edit

A music video was made for "Sugar Torch" and directed by David Roth. It can be found on the Dope, Guns & Fucking up Your Videodeck, Vol. 1-3 DVD released by MVD Visual.[5]

AllMusic staff writer John Dougan gave the album four and a half out of five stars, calling it a "terrific, noisy, clamorous record stuffed to the gills with pure punk rock excitement."[2]

Spin wrote: "Comfy with its funk now, the rhythm unit bangs down walls, as intelligent guitar noise blankets the mess, segueing smoothly between melody and tuneless abrasion."[6]
