Critical response
[edit]- Kerrang! - "Sure to blow all the competition out of the water"
- Terrorizer - "Possibly one of the most exciting things to come out of the British metal scene for some time"
- Powerplay - "Head nodding grooves and filmic drama"
- Metal Hammer UK "Xerath sound like the result of a chaotic experiment to produce the ultimate please-them-all 21st century metal band.
