AllMusic[1]

The title is a word play of "Pushing the envelope", salmonella, and manila envelope.

Critical reception

The Washington Post wrote that the band "combines art-rock and hard-rock with a muscular rhythm section that adds a surging, funk-flavored bottom in the vein of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Living Colour."[7]
