Critical reception
AllMusic wrote that there's "some quality material, but without the integrated feel of their other full-length works." BBC Music called Parallel a "landmark," writing that the remastered title track included on the Book of Dogma collection "is blinding as ... layers of light and reflective sound form an expansive multi-tonality."
