Christopher Smith writes, "Viscera doesn't have quite the same lyrical mastery as Broken Voice, nor the musical epicness of Behold, but it is nonetheless a captivating and thought-provoking mini-album."[1] Dylan O'Connor says, "if you have the patience to sit through longer songs with a slow burn, Viscera is a rewarding listen."[2] David Craft states, "don't let this gem pass you by."[3]
Mary Nikkel describes, "Full of hard-edged guitar tones, otherworldly vocals and lyrics that are both vividly poetic and intensely human, Viscera is the best yet from My Epic."[5] Nicholas Senior believes, "Viscera is a great example of a good band evolving into a great one...Viscera sees the band merging their pasts quite well, with Yet's post-Thrice-style grunge building upon the graceful beauty of Behold."[4]
