Critical reception

Template:Music ratings

In a favorable review, AllMusic's John Bush commented: "Taking their punk heritage from the Buzzcocks, Unwound write grinding, but tuneful songs. Most tracks rumble with a wandering bass while guitar fuzz coats the works. The vocals are intense, usually screamed. One atypical touch is the closer, a hypnotic quasi-ambient organ piece".[3] In a mixed review, Jem Aswad of CMJ New Music Monthly praised the opening track, but criticized the album's consistency.[4] The album's title inspired the name of Brooklyn synth band Future of What.[5]
