Reception

Brad Haywood of Pitchfork Media gave Arrhythmia a 7.7 out of 10, saying, "despite its shortcomings, Arrhythmia has plenty of appeal, particularly to the indie crowd, for whom progressivism is a badge of pride."[5] Lisa Hageman of CMJ New Music Report said: "This album has been meticulously crafted down to the tiniest detail, rendering each track its own unique and complete experience."[4]

Arrhythmia ranked at number 7 on Chicago Reader's "Best Releases of 2002" list.[8] In 2009, it was listed by The Skinny as one of the Warp Essentials.[9]
