Reception
Template:Album ratings Rolling Stone reviewer Danyel Smith called the album "an alternative to the benign bullshit music that floods the chain stores and commercial radio waves."[5] Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote that "although it retains many of the same qualities of their critically acclaimed debut [...] there's nothing that has the same sense of discovery that made Play with Toys an interesting record."[4]
Trouser Press called it "a shade less ambitious" than the debut but "nearly as good."[1] Colson Whitehead, in The Village Voice, gave the album a mixed review, writing that it possessed even more of an indie rock sound than the debut.[7]
Spin listed it as one of the 20 best albums of 1993.[8]
The album didn't receive much airplay or sales.[9]
