In his review, music critic Guru Ken set the album to 8.5 out of 10 and noted that “Pelagia, a singer from God, creates a delicate hand-made canvas of the highest artistic quality, containing 5 minutes of sounding epic songs, divinely beautiful vocals, thoughts about fate and repentance. " The reviewer also indicated that the album was influenced by Britpop , Inna Zhelannaya , as well as a very successful synthesis of folk motifs with modern rock sound [1] .
On the site of the music portal Gogol.ru, the album was rated 5 out of 5, which, according to the reviewer, is full of “a variety of styles in complex compositions, incredible experiments with sound, magnificent, finished compositions, a fresh synthesis of rich timbres of electric guitars and button accordion”. It is also noted that “music permeated with guitar effects resembles the manner of performing the legend of art rock - Pink Floyd . And in combination with the magical vocals of Pelagia, these traditions acquire incredible beauty ”, [3] .
The Kommersant newspaper wrote about the album that “the singer [Pelageya] can tastefully change masks so drifting, drifting from the manner of Inna Zhelannaya to the group“ Mill ”, from Valeria to Valentina Ponomareva” [8] .
