Laura Taylor of Exclaim! said that Sheol is "as melodic as it is brutal", and called it "an unrelenting attack on the senses". She noted that the album "starts to lose effectiveness towards the...end".[3] In 2005, Sheol was ranked number 407 in Rock Hard magazine's book of The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums of All Time.[5]
