Critical reception
Wired wrote that the album's "cabaret dance pop marks the same territory as Madonna's Ray of Light, but with a less chilly approach and none of the self-righteous armchair spirituality." The Washington Post called the album "a little spacey", writing that "its mixture of beats and burbles sounds less like a trip to another galaxy than like a walk in the woods near a rave."{{Cite web|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1999/01/22/lida-husik-faith-in-space-alias/0bc9496f-051a-4443-90ff-c66631cfaffc/|title=LIDA HUSIK|first=Mark|last=Jenkins|date=January 22, 1999|via=www.washingtonpost.com}}
