==Critical reception==
''[[Exclaim!]]'' wrote that "while so many other great bands dry up or go soft over time, it's great to hear Guitar Wolf pounding it out like it's still their first rehearsal".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://exclaim.ca/music/article/guitar_wolf-jet_generation|title=Guitar Wolf Jet Generation | Exclaim!|website=exclaim.ca}}</ref> ''[[The Village Voice]]'' declared that "Guitar Wolf are a regular (albeit mildly psychotic) guitar-bass-drums rock band, who excel at the most primal sort of no-frills trash-rock".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.villagevoice.com/1999/06/01/total-death-of-loud/|title=Total Death of Loud|date=1 June 1999|website=The Village Voice}}</ref> ''[[CMJ New Music Report]]'' deemed the album "raw, rebellious and sonically nihilistic".<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Hendrickson |first1=Tad |title=Must Hear |journal=CMJ New Music Report |date=21 June 1999 |volume=59 |issue=623 |page=3}}</ref>
