Reception

Chain D.L.K. commended Counting to Zero called it "bigger, bolder and heavier album than they've ever done before."4 ReGen said "with Color of Nothing, the band has achieved a bold new standard of darkly melodic songwriting coupled with a truly industrialized rock aesthetic that we’ve rarely heard since the advent of '90s coldwave" and that they "return with some of the richest and most rocking songs they have yet produced, making for an excellent entry in the Collide discography."5
