[6] In Hearts Wake frontman Jake Taylor described it as a "surprise twelve-minute EP odyssey".
"[9] Jack Ford from SpeakerTV gave the EP an 8 out of 10 saying: "Frontmen-in-crime Marcus Bridge and Jake Taylor unite to create a vocal soundscape that adheres simultaneously to both their styles, and pushes them to unforseen [sic] boundaries whilst also staying true to themselves, as their merry bands of metal misfits take musical depth to staggering new highs.
"[7] Rod Whitfield from Beat rated it positively, however stated: "I expected a little more than just two songs with two minutes of ambient noise in between.
"[10] Alasdair Belling from Howls & Echoes in a positive review said: "The Equinox EP is a fabulous gift to the Australian music scene, and an exciting indication of how far the metalcore community has come since the days of Parkway Drive and I Killed the Prom Queen.
"[12] Evan Conway from Metal Machine gave it a negative review saying: "The truth about the Equinox EP is that it is uneventful, uninspiring, and unremarkable, no matter how you attempt to describe it.
