Reception
Stewart Mason of Allmusic described The Devil Wears Prada as "fairly wide-ranging in its influences", in their take on the metalcore genre, comparing the James Baney's keys to European symphonic metal, while describing Jeremy DePoyster's clean vocals as emo-tinged. He also remarked the album's sound and arrangements to be an improvement over the debut, rendering the demo only essential for "completists".[6]
