Reception

A positive review came from Punknews.org, who described the album as having "a few odd, experimental tracks", but praised tracks 8-10 as "all complex mashes of melodic hardrock and pure emotional hardcore complete with mind blowing screams from Mike Shaw and huge bombastic breakdowns by the band behind him."^[3]
