This is the band's first release with vocalist Jay Forrest and the last with bassist Chad Waldrup and drummer Adam Morgan until 2018's Arbiter.

AllMusic reviewer Alex Henderson praised Jay Forrest's screaming vocals and clean singing, as well as the band's ability to switch between hardcore and melodic elements without "sounding confused or unfocused.

"[3] The Punk News review echoed Henderson's and favorably compared the album to Poison the Well and From Autumn to Ashes.

said the band "smoothly fuses influences from virtually every genre of music found in today's hardcore/metal scene in a way that is not only incredibly talented but it also highly original" and called the album one of the best releases of the year.
