Album cover edit

The album cover depicts a stylized image of the disc of Mictlantecuhtli, a Teotihuacan monolith, currently housed at the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City.

Critical reception edit

Trouser Press wrote that "despite the assistance of assorted sprites and faeries, Rusted Root’s rhythmic world music-influenced drivel is better suited for a Pringles commercial than a tribal gathering."[1] MusicHound Rock: The Essential Album Guide called the album "an incredibly well-realized indie debut."[3]
