due to the presence of "decaying guitars, howling, disembodied vocals and crumbing synths" and stated that the album "sounds a lot like the way the abandoned parts of Detroit look." AllMusic noted that the album is characterized by a "brusque textural disconnect between each of the album’s songs," but gave the album a 4 out of 5 stars. TinyMixTapes praised the album noting that the album is "does justice to the art of litany and skree in ways that are refreshing, if not revelatory." Invisible Oranges described the album as desolate and distorted and sometimes beautiful. Pitchfork called the album "great" and found the album’s "excoriation of society is more of a way out than a mere self-excommunication."
