"The Daily Telegraph" called the song a "surging, riff-heavy monster" that "could well give [Babylon Zoo] another number one". "Select" were critical, writing: "No amount of nudity, drugs or free stuff would help make this low-rent gothic mush any better." Sonic Youth's Lee Ranaldo, a guest reviewer in "Select", said that the track "isn't nearly as good as ['Spaceman']." Track listing.
