Signaling in a four star review by HM Magazine, Reid Olson responds, "The guitar riffs rip, the drumming drives and altogether, Supreme Chaos causes barely controlled headbanging. A definite add to the War of Ages canon."[3] Danny McMartin, indicating in an eight out of ten review from Cross Rhythms, regarding, "It is this deft approach which makes 'Supreme Chaos' such a pleasing effort."[2] Specifying in a four and a half star review from Jesus Freak Hideout, Aaron Lambert replies, "Overall, War of Ages have unleashed a metal masterpiece with Supreme Chaos. There's no disputing that this is the best album they have ever written, and with the addition of the brilliant Jack Daniels to the already stellar lineup, this could mark the beginning of a new chapter for one of Christian metal's most gifted prodigies. Supreme Chaos comes highly recommended."[5] Lee Brown writes in a four star review from Indie Vision Music, recognizing, "Though they are always one of the strongest bands out there, Supreme Chaos brings an even more polished and spiritually uplifting set of songs to War of Ages’ already impressive arsenal."[4]
