Chuck Pratt of the Chicago Sun Times wrote, "This is art music that's also dance music, strange yet familiar rock 'n' roll. The band could be compared to Brian Eno, Robert Fripp or the Talking Heads, but it imitates none of those artists. Polyrock makes an original sound, a provocative and impressive one." [2]

Robert Christgau noted the "crescendo techniques developed by, that's right, the Feelies—who could have used some coproduction themselves." [3]

The album was ranked at number 76 on Fact 's list of "The 100 Best Albums of the 1980s", in 2013. [5]
