The Washington Post wrote that the album "finds the Dots in good form, combining contemporary electronics with '70s jazz-rock touches in the service of goth-cabaret-folk-rock songs."[7] The Plain Dealer wrote that "the dense, highly textured sounds reveal the band members' interests in the more adventurous aspects of techno and industrial music, but the music feels purposeful, not indulgent."[4] The Times-Picayune thought that A Perfect Mystery alternates "pulsing, up-tempo rockers with moodier pieces interlaced with spooky keyboards and an effects-laden saxophone."[8]
