Reception

Sounds criticized the album

 as being somewhat undistinguished,

 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."
