Slip was well received by music critics and is now considered a classic in the post-hardcore and alternative metal genres, influencing many acts including Torche and Deftones. The lead single off the album, "Fazer", became a college radio hit. The album was reissued on vinyl in 2012, through Dine Alone Records and Shop Radio Cast. The reissue featured a cover of The Smiths song "How Soon Is Now?". Critical reception The album generally received positive reviews from music critics. AllMusic senior critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote: "Quicksand's music is about powerful anger, and the persistent, bludgeoning Slip delivers the goods." Gina Arnold of Entertainment Weekly stated: "Quicksand is derivative, but at least its operative influences — Helmet and Fugazi — are highly agreeable ones." BBC's Alex Deller described the record as a "40-minute master class in post-hardcore perfection." The album is included in Decibel magazine's Hall of Fame.
