AllMusic[1]
Alternative Addiction[2]

A writer for Alternative Addiction noted how a majority of the album leans more towards rock than the pop aesthetics of the band's self-titled debut, commending Robb Torres' guitar work for being an admirable replacement for Simon Ormandy and Chris Taylor Brown for his catchy lyrical hooks.[2] Gregory Heaney of AllMusic said that the record contains "a heavier, harder-edged sound" while still retaining the radio appeal of the band's previous works, concluding that "With this tighter, more aggressive approach, Trapt fans should be pleased to hear that the band is still able to keep things fresh after all these years."[1]
