In 2020, Modest Mouse lead singer Isaac Brock named it one of his 9 favourite albums of all time. "I like them so much that they could actually show up to my house and just crap on me,” Brock said about the band & the album, “I’ve never actually heard anyone do as good a job covering as much distance of what modern politics [sic] and the terror that awaits us in a way that doesn’t sound like political singing". He has also cited the lyric "What do fish know about water?" from the track "Private Execution" as an influence on the lyrics to Modest Mouse's 2021 album The Golden Casket, calling it "a very simple, concise way of saying we don't know what we don't know and there's a lot we don't fucking know."
