Critical reception

Dominion received generally mixed to positive reviews from critics. Taylor Markarian from Blabbermouth.net gave the album 6.5 out of 10 and said: "Ultimately, just as there is a push and pull between oppressive and liberating forces in the theme of the record, there is tension between disjointed and cohesive elements in its sound and structure. While certain tracks are enjoyable individually, the fragmented parts don't add up to a satisfying whole." Jesus Freak Hideout rated the album 4 out of 5 and said: "In the end, as is made clear by this album's four-star rating, neither of these critiques seriously detract from the overall experience of Dominion. Cooper and company have delivered yet another album which is sure to please the present-day fans, and one which may even bring a few departed Panheads back into the fold." Louder Sound gave the album a mixed review and stated: "With Dominion, Skillet really are preaching to the converted. Ker-ching!"
