The Washington Post called the album "unpretentious and emotionally convincing," writing that the band's "chief asset is not (Ira) Kaplan's flat, intimate vocals, but their guitars, which are finely textured and finely tuned to the moody, personal resonances of their songs." Trouser Press wrote that "it’s originals like 'The Cone of Silence' and 'The Forest Green' that make Ride the Tiger such a pleasure."

on Pencil Test
why pretend that you join my side
it won’t be such a thrill
to see you
I’m not impressed
that more or less
everyone’s just dying to meet you
doo doo doo doo
erasing you
doo doo doo doo
I’m done chasing you
asking ??
??
are you so sure of what you’re doing
how many ways
can you read your own gaze
before you get tired of you
doo doo doo doo
erasing you
doo doo doo doo
I’m done chasing you
doo doo doo doo
erasing you
doo doo doo doo
I’m done chasing you
doo doo doo doo
erasing you
doo doo doo doo
I’m done chasing you
doo doo doo
doo doo doo
doo doo doo
doo doo doo.....
