Critical reception

Exclaim! called the album "good, basic, well-produced country and swing-influenced rockabilly." The Austin Chronicle panned the "Gap-ready numbers like 'Sleeper Coach Driver' and 'Hand It to Me'," writing that "one Big Bad Voodoo Daddy is more than enough." Trouser Press wrote that "The Rev relocated his songwriting mojo for an album full of tasty rockabilly, swinging grooves and good old-fashioned stomp." CMJ New Music Report deemed it "a skillfully choreographed saloon rumble of an album."
