Chris Faraone of The Phoenix commented that "There are thousands of MCs who rhyme about high-ranking war criminals and corporate genocide, but few wax progressive notes like Dolan."[7] Eddie Fleisher of Alternative Press praised Alias' production, stating, "his spastic, head-nodding beats are so good, that they occasionally overshadow the headliner."[5] He added, "However, that's not due to any lack of talent on Dolan's part, who's on the top of his game throughout the disc."[5] Alan Ranta of PopMatters wrote, "In a world growing more cynical by the day, Fallen House, Sunken City is a beacon of hope, as empowering and cerebral as it is worthy of bumping and grinding."[8]
