## Critical reception

[edit]

Joshua Galla from New Release Today said, "Planetboom achieved something few other bands and artists have, a unique sound. No other band sounds like Planetboom regardless of the track. It's memorizing. It's unique. It's over-the-top. It's everything I never knew my ears and soul needed. I adore all of the various instrumentation and eclectic soundscapes. This is one of the few albums I've listened to 10-plus times in less than a month’s time. I hope other youth group bands follow the creative mold Planetboom has set going forward."[5] Tracy Epperson from Faith Filled Family Magazine said, "There is no denying this album is written by Christ enthusiasts. This music makes me want to dance and sing loudly; its sound is uplifting and inspirational. The message is about redemption, overcoming and about being loved; altogether it elevates the soul. The music covers a gamut of genres from Christian pop to Christian rock and rap to trap, Christian EDM and easy listening anthems. Whew. With that said, I’d say that K-Pop is the predominant vibe. It is modern music with Christ centered lyrics."[6]
