Brian Howe of Pitchfork said, "For now, they're talented musicians welding durable dub onto tired post-hardcore with very mixed results." [5] John Bergstrom of PopMatters commented that "New Heavy isn't just a noble undertaking, it's an ambitious one full of pitfalls. [6] Ron Hart of Billboard wrote, "Dub Trio's attempts to fuse metal guitars and echodelic riddims fall right on the money in the studio." [3] David Downs of East Bay Express called the album "Perfect for boozy barbecues, fast driving, and late-night living-room after-parties." [4]
