Awarding the album three stars from HM Magazine, David Stagg states, "Conclusions grew on me."[3] Christian Cunningham, rating the album a six out of ten for Cross Rhythms, writes, "'Conclusions' descends into decidedly average riffing."[2] Giving the album three and a half stars at Jesus Freak Hideout, Michael Weaver says, "At times they shine and at others the sound isn't much more than generic hardcore."[5] Brody Barbour, indicating in a three star review by Indie Vision Music, describes, "Conclusions is nothing extremely out of the norm".[4] Signaling in a two and a half star review by The New Review, Max Grundström states, "Song quality rapidly declines the closer you get to the end of Conclusions".[6]
