However, as Nekrogoblikon grew more popular and their sound became cleaner (think Welcome to Bonkers ’ "Dressed as Goblins"), a revisionist appreciation for "Stenchrar" emerged. It is now viewed as "anti-art" or a "deconstruction of metal production standards."

In 2023, the song was listed by MetalSucks as #7 on their list of "Songs That Should Never Be Remastered." The article argued: "To remaster Stenchrar would be to kill it. The bad recording is the song. It is a captured moment of a band making exactly the noise they wanted to make, consequences be damned."

While the band’s 2018 album Welcome to Bonkers introduced many to their polished chaos, and The Fundamental Slimes and Humours (2024) showcases their mature evolution, there is one track in their discography that long-time fans whisper about with a mix of reverence and disgust:

"Stenchrar" is not a song you listen to for enjoyment. It is a song you experience as a ritual. It is the musical equivalent of mud between your toes, the smell of a wet dog, the taste of expired mead. For fans of extreme metal, it represents the ultimate truth: art should be allowed to be ugly.
