[6] Scott Hull remastered the album at Visceral Sound[5] for a compilation with the EP A String of Lies which was released on October 11, 2005.

"[1] It made Rolling Stone call Soilent Green one of the "ten most important hard and heavy bands right now"[4] and was 18th on Terrorizer's top albums of 1998.

[4][1] According to William York from AllMusic, "each song is a nonstop sequence of constantly morphing riffs and assaultive, split-personality vocals, leaving listeners little chance to catch their breaths."

Throughout, frontman Ben Falgoust alternates between black metal screams; a hardcore-derived, semi-barking voice; spoken word passages; and death growls.

During the album the band uses Southern-flavored rock grooves,[1] blast beats, moments very complex musically and Black Sabbath-inspired riffs.
