AllMusic critic Brian O'Neill regarded the album as "as enthusiastic as it is plagiaristic," while noting "the organic feel to the disc that separates it from their more angst-ridden peers." O'Neill further wrote that the record "isn't original, per se, as much as it does a good job melding its pronounced influences more seamlessly than most; the band would get a better recommendation if the record had songs that stood out a bit more."[3] Melodic's Pär Winberg stated that Trapt features a "softer and more pop-orientated voice that I think is great for this type of music, compared to all clones out there."[2]
