Reception

German reviewer Zander Buel talked about the album's genres and said that "The synth textures exist outside of both Futurepop and Aggrotech, inspired by a place far beyond those genres that still somehow manages to sound in line with them. And, of course, Peter Spilles’s vocals remain at the forefront as harsh, scathing, and venomous, but with as much passion as ever".[3] Dark music website "gothicparadise.com" gave the album 4.5/5, saying that "With all of this diversity mixed with the classic, pounding styles, we have a great, dynamic album. With the heavy hitting bass and grinding, pulsating synths and beats mixed with the dark, deep vocals creates the tried and true sound we've grown to love over the years".[4]
