[2] Aggregator Album of the Year gave the release a 79 out of 100 based on a critical consensus of 11 reviews. [10]
Daniel Sylvester of Exclaim! noted the album "is more than a collection of novel (or classical) ideas, as much as it's a assembly of gorgeously written and expertly arranged musical concepts, showing Vessel making some of the most clear-eyed art of his career." [5] Nicholas Glover from The 405 noted that the album "is a bold and original statement that collides together emotions, textures and beats to gloriously dissonant effect. It’s also Vessel's best album to date." [3]
