Taylor Weston, allotting the album four and a half stars by HM Magazine, recognizes, "Showbread Is Showdead, tips a courteous hat towards the band’s history, before injecting a fresh dose of adrenaline and entering into uncharted territory. Featuring members old, current and new, it’s more than a worthy effort."[1] Awarding the album five stars at Jesus Freak Hideout, Scott Fryberger writes, "Showbread Is Showdead is a stellar way to end a bizarre, yet amazing, career in the music industry".[2] Christopher Smith, rating the album four stars from Jesus Freak Hideout, states, "Showbread may be showdead after 2016, but their raw rock will kill forever and ever."[3] Giving the album four and a half stars for Jesus Freak Hideout, describes, "Showbread's final hurrah is one you'll definitely want to hear."[4]
