The album received limited but generally positive reviews. Of the reviews collected, New Noise gave the album a perfect 5 out of 5, stating: "Trying to poke flaws in this album would just be fruitless work, for Impending Doom has successfully put together the best metal LP of the year so far."[8] Giving the album 3.5 out of 5 stars, HM Magazine noted that: "the new album surely won't disappoint fans of the band's catalog, even though it doesn't quite illustrate a deliberate personal relationship with Jesus as Nailed. Dead. Risen."[7] Amber Stevens of Metal Injection, giving the album 6 out of 10, described it as "damn well punishing enough for even the most critical, die-hard fans of the genre" and "a straight-forward, heavy hitting assault of the senses".[6]
