Critical reception

The Quietus wrote: "The attention to detail is never anything less than immaculate. The sensuous drag of ‘Skin Turns To Glass’ features squalls of multi-tracked guitar lines producing birdsong as a veritable Glen Branca of a guitar orchestra provides the snail-slow rumble."[5] Exclaim! called the album "yet another display of densely layered guitars, buried vocals, achingly slow build-ups and barely audible drum machine patterns."[1]
