The album received favourable reviews in Germany that marked the opulent style and lead singer Ji-In Cho's classically trained voice. The Sonic Seducer magazine called it a "highlight" after the band's EP Evolution Principle and compared the track "Sweet Revenge" to the style of Meat Loaf.[5] Also Laut.de noted the opulent instrumentation.[3] The Norwegian Metal Express Radio wrote "that while not really original, [it] does enough to stand out from the pack."[4]
