Reception
The album has received generally positive reviews. Loudersound.com gave the album a 3.5/5, saying "Rammstein’s industrial contemporaries pack a weightier punch".[3] Webzine Distorted Sound gave the album a 8/10, saying "Overall, Megaherz have demonstrated that yet again, they understand industrial metal as a genre inside and out. Here on Komet, they masterfully play within the limits of what can be done with the genre, and often cross completely out of those boundaries altogether".[4] Metalhammer.it gave the album an 80/100 too, saying "Megaherz always keep the rudder straight on the NDH canons".[5]
