Laura Taylor of Exclaim! said that the album "has an aesthetic of accessibility (perhaps on the Fear Factory side) that may turn off some purists but gives the band a decent potential for reaching out to the masses."[7]
Chris Clayton of Blabbermouth said that their debut "fully embraces every angle of aggressive music and, in an overpoweringly meticulous fashion, slots them all together seamlessly" and "could never quite be accused of being a one-dimensional recording."[3]
