The Tucson Weekly cautioned that the album may "sound numbingly derivative." The Chicago Sun-Times deemed it "high-energy, low-brain." The Sun-Herald praised the "booming hip hop rhythms and massive, distorted guitar riffs."

The Phoenix New Times, described the Junkeez as a “combination of hard-core hip-hop’s funky samples, frantic scratching, and take-no-prisoners rhyming layered over punk rock’s instrumental assaults.”
