Reception

Norman Fleischer gave a mixed review of the album, noting the Thirteen Sense's failure to live up to the initial success of '' The Invitation''. Fleischer writes:

"On the other side ''A Strange Encounter'' somehow also sees the band liberating itself from any expectations. But somehow it also feels a bit more like a tender final wave from a talented band like the desperately needed new start. This gives the new Thirteen Senses record a somehow bittersweet aftertaste. And ironically that's the most fitting environment for their music."
