The album has received positive reviews from critics.

Writing for Pitchfork Andy O'Connor stated: "They’re part of a new metalcore movement that proves that experimentation and succinct, clobbering riffs can not only coexist but make for natural partners. On their first full-length, Only Self, they make the case that such should be the new tradition."[13]
