Symphony of Unnecessary Surgery "comes roaring out of the traps, an absolutely raging display of death metal" (Zero Tolerance - UK), the album "paces its blastbeats and dizzy-drill guitars with enough patience and complexity to justify taking all its songs past the six-minute mark" (Madison A.V. Club), with "haunting and brutally honest" playing, and lyrics that "are compelling and command attention" (The Badger Herald).
