Critical reception
MusicHound Rock: The Essential Album Guide called the album "one of the lost mini-masterpieces of the '90s."[4]Trouser Press wrote that "between the intricate vocal arrangements, the endless attractive music and Husik’s inventive playing, Joyride is the pinnacle of her pop art."[8]The Washington Post called the album "wispily psychedelic," writing that "there's little tension in its evocation of altered-state bliss."[1]Billboard wrote that "Husik's soft, sensual alto ... rises above the current bumper crop of girly voices."[9]CMJ New Music Monthly called it "a remarkably fluid song-cycle of sublety."[10]
