In a five-star rating for New Noise, Ray Romanski stated that the album "brings the Neanderthal heaviness they're known for to new lows—low tuning, low frequency, subterranean levels of muck."^[5] Sputnikmusic reviewer Raul Stanciu assigned it a rating of 3.8 out of five and commented about the production that it "fits like a glove with its dense sound" and the album that it switches "between bulldozing riffage and muddy grooves."^[6]

The album received a rating of eight from Distorted Sound reviewer Adam Robertshaw, who remarked, "The guitars and bass are both saturated with so much low end and fuzz, each strike or a chord sounds like a volcanic eruption, and the drums are punchier than on any other Conan record."^[3] Metal Hammer's Perran Helyes gave it a rating of eight, noting "Frontman Jon Davis still cries out every word like he's scaling a castle wall with burning pitch speckling his skin, and Johnny King remains one of metal's most underrated sticks men for uniquely obnoxious yet unconventional rhythms, like the unpredictable tempo spikes that end Desolation Hexx."^[1]
