Critical reception edit

Exclaim! called the album "a terrific stab at first-gen hardcore featuring echoing bass, shifts between menacing mid-tempos and testosterone-fueled blasts of furiousness, and a slightly updated feel thanks to crisp production and more guttural vocals accented by backgrounds."[4]
