, it was described as "Cornwell's finest and most unashamedly epic moment since the punk era". Prior to a Scottish tour that year '' The Herald'' wrote “The album yields its eloquent lyrical strengths on repeated listenings: stand-out tracks include the evocative A Street Called Carroll, Love Me Slender, I Want One of Those, a commentary on consumerism, and, unquestionably best of all, the atmospheric, nine minute noir epic, In the Dead of Night, which should become a live favourite. Cornwell's forthcoming tour sees him play the new album and the Stranglers' landmark 1977 record, No More Heroes, but ''Totem and Taboo'' is strong enough on its own.". A review on the Witchdoctor.co.nz website stated that "In a world or egotistic over-achieving and slack-arse under-achieving, Hugh Cornwell knows how to play it just right, and ''Totem & Taboo'' is a master class in sticking to your guns and doing what you do well".
