"When it all comes to its glorious conclusion, Chaos in Bloom feels like time spent catching up with old friends; a visit that has gone by far too quickly and demands an immediate repeat. Like some of the pair's brightest and most successful work, it is a collection that never mindlessly fills its spaces, rather, it creates a careful balance between the natural highs of life and its doldrums; acknowledging that it's okay to get lost inside your own head yet reminding listeners to cherish those that know when to pull you out of your own chaos".

"If, apart from the occasional slick synthesized gloss, Chaos in Bloom doesn't sound markedly different than other Goo Goo Dolls albums, give the band - and especially producer Rzeznik - credit for this: over 30 years into their career, they know what works for them and what doesn't, so they showcase their attributes to their best effect on this tight, lean record".

"Chaos In Bloom is a joyful album that shows off the band's talent and Rzeznik`s production skills. Despite the first two songs sounding the same, this issue is quickly corrected with the rest of the album. Each song's difference is subtle, but it's fun to hear the progression. The album is well paced, well produced, and it is a coherent piece of work. It's nice to see the GOO GOO DOLLS go back to their roots. This album is a fantastic addition to their wide back catalogue, and is one that will please old and new fans alike".
