Reception
Trouser Press, which gave the eponymous album by Eyes Adrift a favorable review, said that Volcano was even better. They noted the "simple rough-in-the-studio mix", the reggae feel of most of the songs, and the "high lonesome" feeling conjured by Kirkwood's "unfettered vocals". They wrote:
| “ | "Twisted Seeds" is a high point in Kirkwood's career — with its Jerry Garcia influence and overlapping verses, it's nothing you'd find on a Meat Puppets album. "Arrow" features pseudo-pedal steel and Latin guitar with stylings that echo the era of Meat Puppets II. | ” |

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“I gave a speech in Omaha. After the speech I went to a reception elsewhere in town. A sweet old lady came up to me, put her gloved hand in mine, and said, “I hear you spoke here tonight.” “Oh, it was nothing,” I replied modestly. “Yes,” the little old lady nodded, “that’s what I heard.””
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
“But in the reception of metaphysical formula, all depends, as regards their actual and ulterior result, on the pre-existent qualities of that soil of human nature into which they fall—the company they find already present there, on their admission into the house of thought.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
