The album was released to positive reviews. Entertainment Weekly awarded the album 9.1 out of 10 stars, and Allmusic said of the album: "Without it ever deliberately going for the jugular, ''Nuclear Daydream'' is nevertheless an album that is difficult to shake out of your ears; moreover, it's one that only grows stronger with every repeated play."

Joseph discussed the making of ''Nuclear Daydream'' in an interview with Newsday:

''Nuclear Daydream'' was reissued in Europe by Fargo Records on October 6, 2009 on CD (in a mini-LP sleeve with lyrics booklet) and double heavyweight vinyl (in a gatefold sleeve). The new edition includes six previously unreleased bonus tracks that were recorded during the album's sessions.NUCLEAR DAYDREAM TO BE RE-RELEASED IN EUROPE OCTOBER 6TH
