"Some of the lengthier behemoths among the seven tracks here, though, particularly the sprawling Flamethrower are a little overblown and tend to lose their way at times. Despite that, PetroDragonic Apocalypse is another worthy entry into King Gizzard's avalanche of ever-changing albums".

"The stricter members of the metal community might see King Gizzard as interlopers with no real metal cred, but after Rats Nest and now this thrillingly massive album, there's no reason the band shouldn't be considered one of the best practitioners of the genre around".

"Simpelt, effektivt og alligevel dejligt skørt er dette album ... Hvis man ikke har langt metal-hår endnu, burde man lade det gro så hurtigt som muligt, da man ikke kan komme igennem albummet uden at nikke med hovedet eller endda headbange".

"PetroDragonic Apocalypse is a King Gizzard album that's black in all aspects: its metal, its atmosphere, its magic, and its comedy. Where Rats' Nest pummelled forward with direct immediacy, PetroDragonic Apocalypse finds the band leaning toward proggier elements of metal with endless unpredictable detours. As with all successful concept albums, its individual songs work as well independently as they do as a whole. It's depth shrouded in mischief, and it's proof that King Gizzard have mastered creating music that's as heavy conceptually as it is sonically".
