"Lots of great, fun, little songs that keep you moving."
"MXPX is the best band ever!"
"The first album they truly sound produced and professional. This album instantly brings back memories of me listening to this CD as a 17 year old kid singing along to songs like "Doing Time" and "Wonder Years." On July 17, 2010 MxPx performed the whole album from beginning to end in Las Vegas Nevada at the Hard Rock Casino's "Wasted Space.""

"We so quickly forget the treasures and deep satisfaction of living for Him rather than ourselves and selfishly look back wishing we could go back to sitting on our own thrones...when, in reality, we were miserably searching for our meaning."
"I first heard of Sara while watching the Dove Awards a few weeks ago. She talks about how our efforts to move on from where we have been to what God has in store for us often leads us to lingering on the past, even though we know that is not His plan. The "christian music biz" has left a stale taste in my mouth, but this...this is so much more than what the Nashville machine has spoon-fed to us."
"In a world where most music has settled into a common sound, Sara Groves reaches upward and succeeds in producing some of the best spiritual melodies I've ever heard."
"Since Rich Mullins died, I had lamented the lack of someone who told The Truth about life unflinchingly."
"I've had this CD for years."
"This album has a beautiful honesty to it lyrically and musically."

"It's up there with Ghost of David, ....Shadow, Where Shall You Take Me, and possibly Brothers and Sisters.... His work is at its best for me when there are good melodies and lyrics that evoke a certain place and time with great spirit and detail."
"Damien Jurado instantly conjures up memories of other singular musicians like Nick Drake, Elliott Smith and Pete Yorn. Hell some of his catchier tracks like "Honey Baby", "Letters & Drawings" and "Ohio" are almost patent rip offs of Pete Yorn Singles circa "musicforthemorningafter"... if he hadn't done it two years prior that is. The cadence of "Tragedy" makes me think of "Feeding the Tree" by Belly, "Eyes for Windows" is almost assuredly an homage to Nick Drake's "These Things First" and "Tornado" feels like a revisit of "Barbarosa" by Sordid Humor. I would not say the Damien Jurado has a great voice by any means but I will state clearly that he does have the rhythm, vision, arrangement skills and writing ability to invalidate the necessity."
"Damien Jurado's always been one of those artists whose music I enjoyed every time I've heard it, but, oddly, never really went out of my way to do so. If I had to describe his music in terms of other artists, I'd liken him to a more melodic, more dynamic, Mark Kozelek with a splash of a more subtle Will Oldham (Bonnie Prince Billy). A few high water marks: Ohio*--- Speaking of Mark Kozelek...this could easily be one of his songs...from the guitar picking, to the song structure, to the subject matter, but with more dynamic and engaging vocals. What I get from this song: Sometimes realizing you've moved on can be sadder than the original loss."

I MADE IT VERY CLEAR, THE WERE NOT SPECTATORS AT A RELIGIOUS CONCERT, BUT PARTICIPATORS IN A WORSHIP SESSION FOR JESUS CHRIST OUR KING, HIGH AND LIFTED UP."
"5 stars are not enough!"
"But add the message of Jesus to the simple, singable nature of much Irish song, and you have a mix that can't be beaten. "Garments of Praise," "Shout to the North," and Revival, the first 3 tracks, all have hooks I catch myself singing sometimes on my daily walk to work."
"If you love Christian music, you deserve to own this album."
"Every piece is a statement and a prayer for the people, the land, and revival. This particular album was used in prison ministry in Fort Worth, Texas, and proved to be invaluable."
"This is a unique, uplifting, utterly brilliant worship album. The message in the songs is uplifting and spiritual, and the music itself is wonderful."
"Beautiful & soul inspiring!"
"It is a lovely blend of the Celtic sound of pipes and violins with the beat and words of the best praise music."
