Release and reception
Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating Allmusic Robert Christgau C+Released in the spring of 1981, as Tattoo You was nearing its completion, Sucking in the Seventies reached #15 in the U.S., going gold, but failed to chart in the UK.
Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic writes
The amazing thing is that Sucking in the Seventies captures the garish decadence and ennui of the band better than the proper albums from this period. Not that this is a better record than Some Girls, but it is better than either Black and Blue or Emotional Rescue.
In 2005, the album was remastered and reissued by Virgin Records.
