"[2] Andy Argyrakis, agrees it is a four star album for CCM Magazine, declaring "Sanctus Real continues to shuffle up its established pop/rock sound with elements as diverse as dusty guitars, synthesizers and varied background vocals.

"[12] Shaving a half star off his rating compared to the rest of the pack, John "Flip" Choquette realizing, "This album isn't perfect, but it's not bad either.

"[7] Paul S. Ganney, in a seven out of ten review for Cross Rhythms, explaining, "Kicking off with the guitar-driven title track, then moving into electronica, this album gives you a good idea of the bases it'll cover right from the start: heavily echoed guitars, driving bass, wonderfully clear vocals.

"[6] Awarding the album four and a half stars for Louder Than the Music, Jono Davies writes, "The songs have great lyrics and melodies and they just keep getting better with every listen.
