Due to the death of frontman Sean McDonnell nine months after the album's release, the band broke up. Critical reception ''The New York Times'' wrote that Surgery "operates in the low end of rock's frequency spectrum, bringing the bass to the center of their sound, rarely hitting the high strings on the guitar, and churning out music that values density over melody." ''The Washington Post'' deemed the album "unexceptional electric blues-rock." ''The Philadelphia Inquirer'' wrote that the band's "riffing and tandem vocals are a modern-rock reduction of Bachman-Turner Overdrive."
