In late 2014, news of Mac Sabbath and a video of them performing their "Iron Man" parody "Frying Pan" first caught public notice on the heavy metal websites Loudwire and Metal Injection, the former of which praised the "hilarity" of the band's presentation, singling out the "coked-out clown" and the "skullet-sporting Grimace".
Several days later, the band effectively went viral, receiving widespread online coverage from a myriad of sources including international music sites such as MTV News, Stereogum, Gigwise and Music Times, lifestyle and culture sites like the LAist, horror movie site Bloody Disgusting, food-centric website The Daily Meal and even Fox News, who called the band "creepy".
Mac Sabbath was reported on by music publications from Germany, France, Italy, Poland and Spain.

Press response to Mac Sabbath was largely incredulous—Digital Spy proclaimed them "without question...the weirdest band we've ever seen"—but overall positive, with Kerrang!
calling them "bizarrely awesome" and Consequence of Sound describing them "possibly more awesome" than the similarly food-themed parody band The Pizza Underground, praising their "righteous stage show".
Bloody Disgusting admitted "I gotta give these guys some serious credit.
The costumes are awesome, they stick to the theme like glue...and they legitimately sound tight", while NJ.com wrote "[a]s a Black Sabbath cover band, they're not bad.
With the Mickey D costumes on, they're hysterical".
Australia's FasterLouder boldly proclaimed them "the best fast food-themed Black Sabbath tribute band ever".
LA Weekly ranked the band #1 on their list of the Top 20 tribute bands in Los Angeles, praising their "ferocious metallic flavor and demented props", summarizing "from their elaborate super-sized costumes to their clever, freak-fried takes on Sabbath’s lyrics, these happy meal menaces sizzle live, and always serve up more than the empty calories of most cover bands".
Paste magazine commented succinctly "The most impressive — and terrifying — thing about Mac Sabbath is that they’re actually really good".
