"God Bless the Go-Go's" received a score of 68 out of 100 from Metacritic based on generally favorable reviews from critics. Allmusic wrote, "Every bit as Go-Go's, that is, as their non -hits and less remarkable material. While the Go-Go's sound is intact, there is not a "We Got the Beat" or a "Head Over Heels" to be found. It is feasible that in this age of pop rebirth, the Go-Go's decided it was now or never." "Rolling Stone" wrote "The album doesn't attempt to update the band's sound with hip-hop moves or electronic frippery, for which God should bless 'em, indeed. The girls' hold on the current pop world remains so strong that Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong co-writes a song ("Unforgiven ) in impeccable Go-Go's drag. The album sold fewer copies than the previous Go-Go's studio albums and peaked on the U.S. "Billboard" 200 at number 57. Two singles were released from the album; "Unforgiven" and "Apology."
