Critical receptionβ»
John W. Patterson at All About Jazz gave Jennifer Batten's Tribal Rage: Momentum a glowing review, saying "I've never heard anyone do anything quite like Batten's continuous stream of note-bending, tapping, swells, controlled feedback, harmonics, and lightning-fast riffs." He likened theββalbumββto Batten's popular guitarist peers. But also that "She goes beyond β» Vai's insane excursions. And tops it off by tipping her hat and then running past β» Satriani's finer weirdness." Praise was also givenββto her supporting musicians: "There is some seriously cool bass work and "severely challenging percussion happening here as well.""
