Munro relates that reviews of the album in the UK were positive - Charles Shaar Murray in the NME, for instance, comparing Harvey to Frank Zappa and opining that the song 'Give My Compliments to the Chef' was the best thing the band had done. Mike Diana, writing in the Newport Daily Press, similarly claimed that 'Give My Compliments to the Chef' was his "favourite cut on the album (just beating out the intro to 'Sharks Teeth')"; Diana compared Harvey to Mike Patto: "Both are well suited to the material they compose... both [are] outrageous." A writer identified as 'JIC' in the Charleston Gazette-Mail regarded the record as ‘a futuristic concept album’ and opined that ‘if they don’t become a giant act from this set, there’s something wrong with us’
The cover, by Dave Field, which Munro describes as a parody of Roger Dean's art for groups such as Yes, depicts degradation of the environment by earthmoving equipment as referenced in the song "The Tale of the Giant Stoneater". In Field's image, a dinosaur is in conflict with an autonomous piece of earthmoving equipment while another dinosaur (possibly the "brontosaurus" who "lies wrong way up" in the song) is seen dead in the background. Munro relates that the song was a response by Harvey to witnessing "a bulldozer paving the way for a new motorway through previously unspoilt land" while on holiday in the West of Scotland. The words to this song - with an alternative title, 'And Another Tree Dies of Shame' - appear on the back cover on what appears to be Harvey's original lyric sheet, as well as being typeset within the gatefold with the remainder of the album's lyrics. Curiously while both versions of these lyrics subtly differ, they are similar in ascribing parts of the song to 'girl', 'man' and 'commentator' (and 'all together'), however Harvey is the only vocalist on the actual track. This song's contrast between ancient lives and the contemporary events eliminating their trace can be seen as comparable to the album's title track, which also brings together a celebration of an ancient natural environment and a 'tomorrow' which will replace it. The title track, while not directly evoking parallels to Nazism, would be associated by most who heard it with its sinister presentation in the film Cabaret.
Although it lacked a hit single, this was the only Sensational Alex Harvey Band album to chart in the UK Top Ten.
