The score opened to positive reception, appreciating the soundscape, composition and live recording methods, where the authentic approach to capture "the sounds from nuclear plant" were highlighted and praised by critics. It was called as one of Guðnadóttir's best original score compositions followed by Joker's soundtrack, which released later this year. Guðnadóttir had received several awards and nominations for her work, including the Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards.
