One review on The Metal Archives gives the album a 92% score, and it says, in part:

Anyway, onto this album, I don't think it's as heavy on the whole as "Dichotomy" was but it sure isn't soft or lackluster either. The technicality of the guitar work is too astonishing to be called a metal core album and they break the metal core tag when they fuse in a piano and trumpets. Tracks 2 , 6, 7, 9, & 11 are all great tracks. Track 8 really didn't need to be a separate track at all even for an interlude or intro to track 9. It was pointless. The lyrics are intelligent and of course are full of religious context but it doesn't take away for those that are not Christian. The album features tempo changes and seamless transitions and even some lengthy tracks to keep the listener's attention. If you've not heard BTA, listen to this album, and then go on to "Dichotomy" and you'll be hooked.

Another review on The Metal Archives gives the album 84%, and it says, in part:

The rest of the album is kind of a free-for-all, but at the same time it has a flow. Each song could easily stand on its own as a single, but somehow they also work together in harmony. Like I said before, it isn't Dichotomy, but it's definitely the second best out of their catalog. Don't believe the bad reviews from metal purists. Listen for yourself and you won't be disappointed.
