Critical reception
Exclaim! wrote that "'80 West' is an upbeat opener, with simple, sweet melodies that remind how well singer Jason Beebout can deliver a hook."[9] Philadelphia Weekly called the album "nearly the equal of [Samiam's] halcyon moment, 1994's Clumsy.[10] The East Bay Express opined that "Beebout still sounds remarkably fresh, and the up-tempo, riff-based tunes have a lot of muscle."[11]
