Journal of Gospel[4]

In a four star review by Journal of Gospel, Bob Marovich said "Five Star Generals is well produced and engineered. Of course the language on Five Star Generals is metaphorical, but there's no denying the group's tough-talking, no-holds-barred stance. These guys aren't playing around. They have fashioned themselves into spiritual superheroes declaring all-out street war on the demons who have encircled and imprisoned Christians. These guys have God's back, and visa versa."[4]

A review in Louder Than The Music said "Five Star Generals hooks and lyrics were more forceful and came across as angry in some of their tracks."[5]
