Recorded in October and November 1996, the album was released on May 13, 1997, by Geffen Records.[7]

Australian publication Tone Deaf reflected in 2015 that, "when Snot released their debut album Get Some in 1997 it was heralded as one of the most melodic, groove laden offerings of [the] nu metal scene", adding that "the album found immediate critical favor and won the band a legion of dedicated Snot Heads."[8]

In 2022, Revolver featured Get Some on a list of "Top 5 One-Album Wonders", and labelled the music as a mix of "Red Hot Chili Peppers-esque funk-rock with sprinting hardcore thrashers and rambunctious Bizkit-ian rap-metal."[9]
