Paul Acquaro stated "Shanir Ezra Blumenkranz's interpretations of John Zorn's second Masada book is a raucous one that is full of energy and urgency... There is a certain consistency to the music, there is a certain amount of cohesion that connects this book of songs, and there is a wonderful contrast between the delicately melodic and thrillingly thrashing".[2]


Griffin Vacheron called the album "the most high-powered, vivacious, and at times frighteningly dynamic entry in the series" stating "Blumenkranz and Co. really manage to bring their own unique fire to the table while still preserving the overall Masada vibe, and for that they should be commended".[3]
