"Gary Clark Jr. has already proven he's the guitar hero for the modern age, but now he's shown he's got the songwriting chops to match. This Land is a triumph for Clark and a quantum leap forward for the blues".

"... This Land is the first place where Gary Clark Jr. doesn't appear hemmed in by the past. The album may be informed by old sounds and forms, yet these familiar tropes feel fresh thanks to Clark's idiosyncratic splicing-a cross-cultural, pan-genre sensibility that speaks to the modern world as a whole, just as "This Land" speaks to this individual moment".

"Ultimately, This Land feels like the truth. Not that 2012's Blak and Blu or 2015's The Story of Sonny Boy Slim weren't honest representations. Both felt like projects Clark was "supposed" to make, though. This Land runs as a philosophical course correction, as a truer start on his path forward".
