In a four-star review for DIY, Finlay Holden remarked, "Across 13 tracks, the record's pulse rises, falls, and distorts, occasionally testing its own stamina but never losing focus."[4] Jake Hawkes, writing for Dork, noted, "On Escalate, they've turned up, absolutely flattened any expectations and proceeded to throw a party in the wreckage."[5] Assigning the album a five-star score, Rishi Shah of NME described it as "an inspiring, brutally honest album that matches the lofty standards to which Vlure hold themselves."[6]
