All Technology Aside,

Sounds
criticized the album
as being somewhat
nondescript,
but praised it
for having
"a lot of good natured
foot-tapping music"
and concluded
"I certainly find it
infinitely preferable to
Black Sabbath,
and I have the feeling
that Budgie might
develop into something
a lot more interesting."
In a brief
retrospective review,
AllMusic
declared that
"For those seriously
interested in
metal's development,
bombastic
treasures like
'Homicidal Suicidal,'
and
'Nude Disintegrating Parachutist Woman'
are
essential listening."
