The album received positive reviews wherein the writers praised the musical quality and diversity of the band. [2] [5] It was also noted that songs like "Mine is the Fury" were harder and heavier than many previous releases of the band. [4] with Metal Hammer calling it the first "true" Eluveitie album after five years. [3] The reviewer for New Noise concluded, however, that "Ategnatos is a good album, though after Eluveitie’s long history and extensive discography, it’s an offering that doesn’t quite stand out from the rest of their catalog."
All lyrics are written by Chrigel Glanzmann, except track 8 by Glanzmann and Jonas Wolf
