Jonathan Keefe of Slant Magazine wrote that despite coming across as "one-note" with repetitive imagery and posturing, he praised the album for continuing the Straight to Hell formula by fusing country music conventions within a metal and art-punk context, concluding that: "Damn Right Rebel Proud seethes with an energy and a perspective that's too often lacking today, and it reaffirms that it's far more than just his name that makes Williams one of the genre's most vital artists."[6] PopMatters contributor Julie Thanki was critical of Hank's lack of "artistic growth" and covering familiar territory throughout the record but praised him for being passionate and profound when delivering the material, singling out "P.F.F." and "3 Shades of Black" as highlights, concluding that: "If you're angry, brokenhearted, under the influence of various substances, screwed over by both your woman and The Man, and you just spilled whiskey on your favorite Misfits t-shirt, Damn Right Rebel Proud is very possibly your perfect soundtrack."[5]
