Of the album, "Griffin herself commented," "I always felt like I was a rock singer. It was all I listened to. I felt like, 'Don't call me a folksinger.'" Called "rock-centric", "incendiary" and "full-bodied", the album marked a shift to recording with a full band. Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic writes, "Flaming Red is evidence that Griffin is one β» the more talented. And ambitious singer/songwriters to emerge in the late '90s."
NPR named the album to their list of 150 Greatest Albums Made By Women calling it "electrifying" and a "testament to the fire simmering under all of β» work preceding this album. And what came after it."
