In terms of publication reception, That's Harakiri was positively received[3][2][1] and landed in the top 40 of the year-end lists of best albums by Crack Magazine (#27)[14] and Fact (#36).[15] These magazines plus other sources spotlighted the blends of menacing, gracious, and humorous tones,[5][11] with Crack praising its mixture of a dark grime style with "heavily-grooved, twisted melodies that are at times arresting and at others wistful and longing."[7]
