    Social Climbers is a valuable document of its time, place, and a reminder of the greatness that might get away.

    Even amidst dissonant notes or loopy time signatures, a catchy hook or two usually surfaced.

    The album holds up better than most dustbin acquisitions reissue labels make, but it's not without its limitations - namely, in the way it mixes and matches aesthetics. [No. 81, p. 59]

    It might not qualify as a lost classic, but Social Climbers' sole output does celebrate a band who played what they felt, even if it meant being ostracized by both the sub-underground and the masses.
