laut.de stated that the record possesses a more puristic sound compared to the debut album since it doesn't include keyboards; however, the sound retains the same thin quality as on the debut.[6] Metal.de in their original review said the band is clearly maturing but still called the album "cheesy". Reviewing the re-recorded version they said the album has better production values. AllMusic said the album has the appropriate Viking metal qualities.
