Critical reception
The Calgary Herald noted the "high intensity mile-a-minute guitars, bottom string bass chords and drums like hammers hitting nail heads."
AllMusic wrote that "its entire first half (kicked off in typical Warrior Soul fashion by an angry psycho-babble rant set to music entitled 'Mars') rolls by without a single memorable moment."
