Professional ratings Allmusic Kill Your Stereo Melodic.net The Metal Forge Planet-Loud Pop Art Magazine The Vine Your Gigs  (78/100)   (7/10) (Mixed) (Unfavourable)  Allmusic described the album as "Delay-based guitar textures are interlaced with subtle synth undercurrents, creating complex patterns out of a set of simple rhythms without cutting down on melody, and the whole thing is executed with a surgical precision that recalls the incarnation of Krautrock promoted by Maserati -- while the sheer intensity brings to mind God Is an Astronaut more than My Chemical Romance." Melodic.net called the album "refreshing, uplifting and incredible," also stating that "this is a 12 track album that is packed full of killer tracks and surprises from beginning to end."
