Critical reception[]

CMJ New Music Report wrote: "One part raw metal and one part industrial, the digitized Peace Minus One is sharper than a bag full of razor blades."[1] The Columbus Dispatch called singer James Baker "unfailingly guttural," and dismissed the album as "a new collection of disenchantment."[7] The Seattle Times called the album "brutal, raw, savage—yet also oddly 'sensitive,' albeit in a hard-boiled way," writing that "Baker's creepy voice is perfect for growling scary prophecies over guest musician Jeff Loomis' speed-metal guitar."[8]
