They were nominated for the ARIA Award for Best Rock Album and opened the Mushroom Concert of the Century. According to McFarlane, "[they] built-up a buzz around the Melbourne independent scene with its mix of noisy guitar fuzz, hard-driving beats, strident pop melodies and Cattanach's alternately sweet'n'purring and aggressive vocals."
