The album has received generally positive reviews, with Kerrang! calling it "a startlingly ambitious piece of work from a truly iconoclastic band."[3] Vocalist Anthony DiDio said of the album, "This record is Vein.fm coming home."[1]
Musical style
Gabe La Torre of No Echo said that the album was thrilling in its unpredictability,[12] while Jack Terry of Distorted Sound Magazine called the album "the aural equivalent of a psychological slasher horror", and also compares some aspects of the album to Slipknot, thanks to the turntables done by Benno Levine.[2]
