Critical reception

edit

Reviewer Carl Fisher describes the album as "11 tracks of savage stompery! Upon A Burning Body are impressively in sync here and their renewed passion and drive shines through strongly."[4]

Kyle Dimond of Distorted Sound Magazine stated that "On 2019's Southern Hostility, some of the heaviness was taken out of their sound and replaced with groove. Fury aims to achieve a middle ground between the two sounds, their earlier and more immediate years combined with a stronger sense of groove. Now with a sound that everyone who's ever heard Lamb of God will feel at home in, there are some pockets of success here."[5]
