Critical reception In July 1997, '' CMJ New Music'' described their sound on this album as "sludgy retro metal", and compared them to Faith No More and New Model Army. AllMusic's Tom Demalon retrospectively stated: "Skunk Anansie's full-frontal charge can be wearing at times, but for a good dose of aggressive, hard rock with better-than-average lyrics, ''Stoosh'' succeeds more than it fails." Tom Sinclair of ''Entertainment Weekly'' wrote that the record "finds Skunk Anansie trading their debut's polite Pat Benatar-ish rock for a bigger, more confrontational sound that flirts with metallic overkill even as it embraces folk and pop", adding that "they've toughened up with ''Stoosh''." In 2005, ''Stoosh'' was ranked number 367 in '' Rock Hard'' magazine's book ''The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums of All Time''. In 2020, PopMatters's Enio Chiola featured the record on its l ...
