Below is one of many reviews the album has received:

"I could cop out and just leave off after describing this as eclectic melodic brutal technicality. It encompasses all of these adjectives (and one noun) in its sound and the resulting construction is an audio architectural marvel. Sudden but unjarring shifts between (...) dark folk moments and heavy but precise black metal menace and the blend of intense melody and intense metalness all work together to produce one of the more creative and accessible pieces of metal around. The vocals, like the instrumentals, shift from startlingly well-sung passages and throat-ripping stylizations (...) Bright and creative."
