Blabbermouth | 7/10[6] |
Rock Hard magazine praised Blood on Blood, saying that the album "should really stir up the German album charts soon. Every bet!".[7] That promise is fulfilled with the album reaching #8 on the German album charts.[8]
Metal Hammer has noted highlight tracks from the album including "the solid rock ballad 'One Night One Day' as well as the ten-minute bouncer 'The Iron Times 1618-1648', in which Rolf [Kasparek] epically addresses the Thirty Years' War."[9]
