Blender ranked it at #56 in their 100 Greatest Indie-Rock Albums ever list. In a 2005 interview with The Triangle, Bachmann reflected on the album rather unpretentiously: "When we first came out we had that energy. It's a weird thing that you can't put your finger on... I listened to 'Icky Mettle', and I almost cringe when I hear it. But what the people probably liked when they heard that record was the energy we were putting out."
