Critical reception

Heaven Is Waiting has been poorly received by professional critics. Trouser Press called the album "further plodding nonsense". AllMusic wrote, "Heavy on gloomy atmosphere [...] but short on memorable songs, Heaven Is Waiting failed to deliver on the promise Danse Society displayed early in their career", though commenting that the album "isn't without interest."
