| Metal Hammer (Germany) | 4/7[3] |
The album received mixed reviews from the German musical press. Metal Hammer awarded four out of seven points in a review and cited stereotypics of the genre.[3] The Sonic Seducer's reviewer was positive though about the mix of classic gothic metal and elements of medieval metal, a new style in Coronatus' repertoire. The overall album was criticised though for being too overloaded.[1]
