On 13 September 2013, Vildhjarta released a music video of the track 'Dimman' and announced their participation in a North American tour with Veil of Maya, Here Comes the Kraken, Northlane, and Structures.
The Circle Pit praised the album, awarding it 9.5/10[4] and writing that "Thousands of Evils rages and fumes and stomps through a good 20+minute long spiral road in five different directions.

Premiering the track 'Regnar Bensin', Terrorizer were positive about the EP as well, writing that "Veering from crushing heavy to eerily calm, ‘Thousands of Evils’ is quite a journey indeed.
