The reviewer for Release Magazine lauded the production and found that the album contained influences of Chvrches and Ladytron.[2] According to The Arts Desk, Ath.Lon was remiscent of Philip Glass and New Order but suffered from a "weedy" production.[3] The Electricity Club noted "excellently layered sounds" with motorik beats similar to early Depeche Mode releases.[1]
