Reception

It was not universally well received, with David Hepworth of Smash Hits describing it as "a tired, hollow effort struggling between weary attempts at rabble-rousing and blush-making pseudo-Springsteen 'street' songs that reek of desperation and contract fulfilling... As empty and self-satisfied a record as anything they supposedly set out to replace." Trouser Press called it "a break with the punk scene, but no less aggressive than usual."
