Promotion
The album was supported by the single "3 Strange Days", which peaked at No. 12 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks. The single included two non-album tracks: the original composition "Where Have I Been" and the cover of Prince's "Let's Pretend We're Married".
Critical reception
The Calgary Herald noted that "neo-psychedelic guitar-grunge swirls beneath the surface of each song." The San Diego Union-Tribune concluded that the band "concocted an irresistible brew of tough-guy guitars, sweet vocals and thoughtful lyrics that sounds like a cross between Free, the Babys and Crowded House."
