Season of the Sparks received a rating of Orange from State, while The Irish Times (an Irish daily broadsheet newspaper and online digital publication launched on March 29, 1859) failed to give it a rating.
Lauren Murphy, who reviewed the album for The Irish Times, also gave it four out of five stars, stating that this is Crowley's "most consistently beautiful album yet" and that the artist "utilises his lyrical talent to conjure up the most gorgeous imagery this side of the Shannon".
