AllMusic described the album as "pretty much packed with business as usual, latter-day ghosts of nu-metal past."[1] Metal Forces rated the album 8.5 out of ten, stating, "Anger Denial Acceptance does whatever the hell it wants…repeatedly. It’s got 'sellout' anthems, the heaviest songs the band have ever recorded and an instrumental."[6]
