Critical reception
AllMusic wrote that "A.O.D. are to punk what the Coasters were to late-'50s R&B; if you can't laugh at this and play it for all your drunken cronies, you must be more of an old stoneface than Mt. Rushmore."[2] Trouser Press wrote: "Well-played and almost tuneful, the post-hardcore Cruisin’ With Elvis contains [songs] that thunder along with concise energy and the group’s typical whimsy."[5]
