Reviews: Another fine achievement by the Huskers (and Spot!). This double LP could be the White album of the subculture. A wonderful diversity of original sounds are all over these sides, the lyrics are intelligent and poignant, and the band is relentlessly tight on the first takes. HD is a group that continues to grow by leaps and bounds, and this album shouldn't be overlooked. These guys are going places. -G.I. (from Flipside #43, Fall 1984) A totally impressive release! Most bands have a hard enough time putting out a single album without filler, but these guys have magaged to fill all four sides here with catchy, powerful, and musical song... real songs. The singing wails, the Oriental psych guitars shine, and the rhythm crunches. It also sounds as if they've been listening to the psychedelic-period Byrds lately, because there are a few reversed tracks for instrumental background included. Tremendous! -Tim Yohannan (from Maximum Rocknroll #15, July 1984)
