Critical reception edit

AllMusic wrote: "The quality is on par with the previous effort, however, in that a few good moments -- the best of which is 'Fascination Street,' a moody, simmering number that has the most soul of anything present here -- intertwine with a sizable amount of filler."[2] The Encyclopedia of Popular Music wrote that the album "saw the band take even more chances musically."[4]
