The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek stated "The trademark harmolodic melody lines are present, but in the way of real group interplay and improvisation, there is little heat. Twins Seven Seven is a fantastic singing and drumming group; it would be a treat to hear them in some setting other than this one. As for the Decoding Society, it's clear that this was the beginning of the end creatively".[3]
