Reception

The album was received with generally positive reviews from critics. Paul M of European magazine Time for Metal gave the album an 8/10, commenting that the album is "full of feeling" (voller Gefühle), and that "you won't get bored either" (wird einem auch nicht langweilig).[2] Jannik Kleeman writing for German webzine metal.de commented that Schwarzer Engel manages to "implement the sometimes quite striking themes so atmospherically that you can lose yourself in the melodies while listening" (die teilweise recht plakativen Themen so stimmungsvoll umzusetzen, dass man sich beim Hören in den Melodien verlieren kann).[3]
