Critical reception

Antti J. Ravelin at AllMusic gave Intermission three stars out of five, calling it "just an attempt to please fans and to postpone the making of their next studio album", but that "oddly enough, Intermission succeeds to offer a very album-like (a strong and steady whole) compilation."
