Mark Richardson of Pitchfork stated, "despite the repetition and the feeling of deja vu, Chorus hangs together and makes for a richly rewarding 40-minute listen; Flying Saucer Attack are living proof that you only need a couple of ideas as long as they're good ones." [2] Jon Wiederhorn of Rolling Stone commented that "the disc holds together as a cohesive work, evolving like an iridescent slide show of natural wonders." [4]
