Critical reception

David Jeffries of AllMusic gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying: "Wherever this one fits genre-wise, Alias has figured out how to employ the drift, the sway, and the compressed boom of his early work into other styles of music." [1] He added: "With his study of moods running parallel, the results keep getting better." [1] Rebecca M. Williams of Exclaim! gave the album an 8 out of 10, saying: "Fever Dream gave us a glimpse of his experimental potential three years ago, and he has followed further down the path of exploration with Pitch Black Prism." [2]
