| Music Express | 2/7 |
| Rock hard | 5/10 |
The reviewer of the Musikexpress simply considered the publication “superfluous” and accordingly only awarded 2 out of 7 possible stars. In Rock Hard , Marcus Schleutermann complained about the “leftover” , even the two new songs had “at best an average level” . Of the maximum 10 points to be awarded, he granted the mini album 5.
