Andrew Earles included the album in his book Gimme Indie Rock: 500 Essential Underground Rock Albums 1981–1996 alongside The Word and the Flesh.[4]
A review posted in the Tucson Weekly noted that the "elements that make Band of Susans truly great also make their relative obscurity baffling ...[and] An unequivocally fantastic album from an equivocal Band of “Susans,” Here Comes Success is ripe for rediscovery"[5]
Cover and images

An official American Motors Corporation (AMC) factory publicity photograph of the 1965 Marlin is the cover art for the Here Comes Success album, and the car's hood ornament is the art on the CD itself.[6][7][8][9]
