The 1999 Pitchfork review gave it a 2.0, absolutely tearing into it (same guy who gave NYC Ghosts and Flowers a 0.0, and Kid A a 10.0). In 2017, someone else reviewed it with the definitive edition coming out, and that got an 8.7 - probably much closer to the actual score.
Of course, it's easily better than The Downward Spiral - it's all so expansive, the arrangements and atmosphere are incredible...plus the vinyl remaster sounds fucking amazing.
