Alex Henderson of AllMusic described the styled of music on the album as deathcore; a "noisy, caustic, abrasive mixture of metalcore and death metal."
AllMusic awarded the album three stars out of five, noting that it was not an album for everyone, but an audience "who do appreciate highly technical deathcore will find Desolation of Eden to be a likable (if less than stellar) contribution to metal's lunatic fringe."
