Michaelangelo Matos of Resident Advisor commented that "Each of these nine tracks is stark and enormous."[2] He added, "Straight off, they announce themselves, and while each has a good amount of detail that you don't even have to listen very closely to notice, what's striking about them all is that those strong first impressions remain true the entire time each track plays."[2] Tim Finney of Pitchfork stated, "It's typical on an album whose structures throw shadows of bleak, inhuman grandeur: Enormity, rather than velocity, defines the best work on Breaking the Frame, and there's a masochistic pleasure in being made to feel very small as you lose yourself on the dancefloor."[5] Accolades
