Upon release, the album received praise from fans and critics alike. The Metal Wanderlust heralded it as a perfect return, saying that "it is simply the best thing the genre has to offer right now." Ending their review by stating that "EVERY fucking song is a ball tearing, arse raping, Thrash fest of the highest order. And it just gets better and better as it goes along."[10] Metal Forces Magazine was more critical and negative of the new release, criticizing its sound as being predictable and generic; Adding they’ve become archetypes and victims of the genre that has once again become crowded with sound-alikes. Though they did speak positive of Kristian "Stan" Havard's guitar work, they ended with "Bury the Pain does not teach us anything new and certainly doesn’t put the pretenders in their place, but Xentrix never had that ability previously anyway. And so as the ten tracks trudge by I can only act on instinct and cast the return of Xentrix to the wayside;Bury the Pain added to my pile of other Xentrix releases that have gathered dust over time."[11]
