Critical reception

The Chicago Reader wrote: "Sinister, gravelly, and coated in sheets of sonic raunch, Fuck With Fire is planted firmly in the burgeoning early-aughts posthardcore scene, with one foot in the anthemic beard-rock of Hot Water Music, Small Brown Bike, and Against Me! and the other in the blistering metalcore of Converge and Botch."^[3] Decibel called the album an "un-fuckwithable masterstroke."^[4] Jason Heller, in The A.V. Club, wrote that it "still holds up as one of the most excruciatingly honest, sickeningly sludgy expressions of post-hardcore circa the early 21st century."^[5]
