Allmusic's Alex Henderson gave the album 4 stars out of 5 and said that "unrest and political corruption are recurring themes on Roorback", and "the songs that Sepultura wrote paint a consistently bleak and troubling picture of the world". Adrien Begrand from PopMatters called Roorback "their strongest effort in years" and "their most consistent and energized album since Roots".[5]
