The album received favourable reviews in Germany that marked the opulent style and lead singer Ji-In Cho's classically trained voice. The Sonic Seducer magazine called it a "highlight" after the band's EP Evolution Principle and compared the track "Sweet Revenge" to the style of Meat Loaf.{{cite magazine|last=Abresche |first=Thomas |title=Krypteria: Bloodangel’s Cry |magazine=Sonic Seducer |year=2007 |issue=2 |url=http://www.sonic-seducer.de/index.php/component/option,com_reviews/anzeige,7269/func,detail/ |publisher=Thomas Vogel Media |language=German |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110723124107/http://www.sonic-seducer.de/index.php/component/option%2Ccom_reviews/anzeige%2C7269/func%2Cdetail/ |archivedate=2011-07-23 }} Also Laut.de noted the opulent instrumentation.{{cite web|url=http://www.laut.de/Krypteria/Bloodangels-Cry-%28Album%29 |title=Pathos, Geschredder und messerscharfes Riffing |first=Michaela |last=Putz |work=Laut.de |publisher=Laut AG |language=German}} The Norwegian Metal Express Radio wrote "that while not really original, [it] does enough to stand out from the pack."{{cite web |url=http://www.metalexpressradio.com/menu.php?main=reviews&id=2300 |title=Krypteria - Bloodangel's Cry |first=Gary |last=McLean |work=Metal Express Radio |access-date=2011-04-19 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110928122432/http://www.metalexpressradio.com/menu.php?main=reviews&id=2300 |archive-date=2011-09-28 |url-status=dead }}
