Said the Washington Times of the record: "Woe's artistry cuts so deep as the band understands the depths of desperation. Their music at times wallows in its own hatred while at others displays optimism that life will improve. It is a satisfying bait and switch because the band knows when to sacrifice betterment at the altar of the bleak." Added MetalSucks, "Woe’s punk spirit goes beyond bouts with d-beats and energy to spare. They don’t give a fuck about convention, just about stretching what they love to the point where it may not be what it originally was anymore...Undramatic my ass. This is the sound of black metal to come." Metal Underground commended the band saying: "The album has a huge amount of variation, and tacks on enough unforeseen twists to keep even the most jaded metal fan listening for the whole run time. Fans of U.S. black metal need to make a point of keeping up with Woe," while About.com noted, "After the brilliant A Spell For The Death Of Man,
Woe puts out another sharp, dynamic black metal album that shows major growth and maturity." Popdose kept it short and sweet: "The USBM scene needs more bands like Woe to take charge and push the genre forward."
