In a positive review for Exclaim!, Calum Slingerland wrote that "Alpha is the brighter and longer disc of the two, varied in its execution by walking a line between challenging, progressive moments and more accessible fare," citing "the soaring choruses and memorable hooks" of "Heavy Heart" and the record's title track that "highlight the group's increased incorporation of non-metal music."[3]
