Welcame is the debut studio album by French heavy metal and hardcore punk band Rise of the Northstar.
Punknews.org praised the first two tracks for displaying the band's mosh-core style and unironic delivery of Japanese pop culture, concluding that, "[I]f you are expecting a groundbreaking, genre-defining release, this is most certainly not it.
"[2] Garvin Lloyd from Louder Sound commended the album for carrying a junk food quality to their hardcore musicianship and mixing it well with manga iconography, calling it "big, dumb fun at its finest."
"[3] Rock Sound was mixed on the "belligerent, Japanese pop culture-influenced hardcore" style after the first track but said that it will please its existing fanbase more than a casual audience.
