Here is a review courtesy of Outer Space Gamelan:
"The sounds on "Joe & Joe" are so unearthly yet so woozily familiar, lulling you into a state of awe and ecstasy and horror. The LP is two long tracks of intimidating aural threat, lots of vocal samples played a different speeds (Hammer) buried way 'neath a ludicrously heavy, churning, cosmic din (Potts). If I had to place it "in league" with something else of the day I could maybe compare it 80's industrial/power electronics/dark ambient a la TG, early Whitehouse, Maurizio Bianchi, and so on...but that's just superficial. "Joe & Joe" comes from a whole 'nother angle playing from a whole different rulebook. Once you're fully immersed in side A (after being hypnotized by the nonsensical babble that floats in and out of the speakers) you begin to notice the rather beautiful, dark shimmer that Potts' drone has going. It's just, I don't know. Like the sonic manifestation of "that tingly feeling". Play it loud and get fuckin' spooked. Worst part of the side is when it ends - the louder you have it, the more of a psyche-shattering jolt you're info as you're unwillingly snapped back to reality.Thankfully the B-side picks up just about where A left off, with the same gloopy, spaced drones silhouetted by barely-there chatters, whispiters, mutters, and the delicate sound of tape spurts and splicings."
