Reception

Aiding & Abetting called Liquid Sex Decay "better than average" and "the results are generally good, though sometimes the final sound seems oddly lightweight." [4] A critic at Black Monday called the compositions intriguing and said "LSD is fresh, fun and exciting, including ambient, industrial and electronic elements in dark trip into gorgeously textured imagery." [5] Sonic Boom praised the musicians of Apparatus and commended them for revealing their artistic growth and moving away from guitar dominated compositions. [6] Steven Cannon of Vibrations of Doom praised the diverse instrumentation and unusual gothic atmosphere. [7]
