The album peaked at No. 109 on the "Billboard" 200. Critical reception. "Entertainment Weekly" called the album "insidiously listenable — all thick, pulsating drums and sinewy melodies, topped by Ash’s studio-processed and thus inhuman-sounding vocals." "Trouser  Press" wrote that the album "takes off in a bunch of different directions, from sedate cocktail swing to low-key salsa (!) to somber atmospherics to jittering dance noise." "The Buffalo News" praised the "furtive, moody, electronically draped reflections on reality and romance." Q Magazine described it as 'sometimes playful, sometimes moody tinkering [that] is for close friends and relatives only'.
