Reception

The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4½ stars, stating:

Live at Tonic is perhaps the most revealing and astonishing record yet by Masada, because it was recorded before a very discriminating audience of enthusiasts not only in the band's hometown, but also in its home club.[3]
