In her review for Allmusic, Joslyn Layne notes that "The follow-up release to Anthony Coleman's Selfhaters, The Abysmal Richness of the Infinite Proximity of the Same finds the Selfhaters Orchestra realizing a music that yields a different experience with each listen... This release is less accessible than the first album (which was mostly live recordings), but is still rewarding".[2]
