Reception

Sonic Boom said "this time Black Lung moves away from sound experimentation of dreams towards more of techno ambient style of instrumentation" and "don't construe that to mean that it is just another rave album, but simply that the programming has become more beat oriented with a great deal of focus on rhythms and melodies rather than soundscapes of the past.[8]
