  • After a slow start this LP starts to improve, and by the time you've reached Durango 95 it's clear that they're returning to form. Half of the tracks are fast punk again, similar to their older songs, but more aggressive and with rougher vocals; Endless Vacation is almost a hardcore song. The other songs, though, are still too long and slow, but it's definitely a turn for the better. [7]  
  • Man rappelt sich wieder auf und liefert mit etwas tieferem Gesang von Joey eine passable Platte ab, die auch kleine HC-Tempoattacken zu bieten hat. Weiterhin Ausfälle. (KS) Etwa die Hälfte der Songs im alten Stil, sogar etwas schneller und vom Gesang her aggressiver als früher; der Rest ist noch immer zu lang, langsam, langweilig. (bj)
