Reception

Metal Reviews gave the album a positive review, saying "Without a doubt, this is the best material that I've heard from the band to date." Last Rites was similarly positive, praising the album as "the perfect escape for those looking for some toe-tapping, uplifting heavy metal". However, the website was critical of some of its songs, stating that they "feature[d] the kind of cringe-worthy lyrics that really make you wish some of these bands would sing in their native tongues".
