Gahan, known for his discerning taste and appreciation for covers of his band's songs, expressed a particular fondness for Lacuna Coil's rendition. Among various popular covers of "Enjoy The Silence," including those by Tori Amos, Entwine, and Mike Koglin, Gahan was drawn to Lacuna Coil's interpretation for its unique and distinct sound.In an interview discussing cover versions of Depeche Mode's songs, Dave Gahan praised Lacuna Coil's take on "Enjoy The Silence," stating, "Their interpretation left me genuinely impressed; it encapsulated the distinctive vibe I always hoped someone would bring to it."Karmacode has a more prominent Middle-Eastern sound compared with Lacuna Coil's previous releases. The album is considered a blend of classical and modern rock, which is notably heavier and more metallic than previous releases.Popmatters comments that the album "doesn’t take any bold steps forward, but it still shows just how good Lacuna Coil are at what they do, presented in a high-gloss, primed-for-stardom package that is bound to go over huge".Two songs from the album have been featured in music video games: "Closer" in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock and as downloadable content in Rock Band, also on-disc featured in Rock Band Metal Track Pack, and "Our Truth" in Rock Band 2, Rock Band Unplugged and Guitar Hero World Tour.In September 2007, Lacuna Coil and website digitalmusician.net launched a competition titled To the Edge remix, accepting remixes of song "To the Edge", with the possibility of a release.
