Critical reception
City Pages called the album an "unrelenting, rage-fueled debut."[5] The Washington Post wrote: "Thump and squeal is essential to the trio's Ethereal Killer, but close listening reveals actual musicality; buried in the mix, guitarist Paul Sanders and bassist Paul Erickson occasionally trade vocals and even harmonize."[6]
