In his review for AllMusic, Michael G. Nastos states, "A music not for everyone in the jazz world, but those who are bold and will listen closely hear a phenomenal concept brought fully to fruition by these incredible, challenging, forward-thinking musicians."[2]
The JazzTimes review by Mike Shanley notes, "Tension and suspense are two key qualities on Door: a gargled alto sax squawk lurking in the distance, stop-start beats played on the rims of the snare and bassy piano lines played in the low register more than make up for the trio’s lack of the stringed instrument."[4]
The All About Jazz review by Troy Collins states, "A truly singular post-modern hybrid that draws equally from M-Base rhythms, Braxtonian structural theory and stark minimalism, Door is the formidable trio's most expansive and challenging recording to date."[5]
