"I det store hele lyder han, som han altid har gjort. Det er imponerende. Men det er også bare lidt deprimerende, at det allerhøjeste, man kan gøre sig forhåbninger om at få fra John Garcias side i dag, fortsat er en imitation af det, han skabte for et kvart århundrede siden. Det er kunstnerisk utilfredsstillende, ikke mindst når han aldrig når helt i mål: Det føles kun næsten som gamle dage, man er konstant bevidst om, at det overhovedet ikke er det. Størstedelen af sangene er gode, men aldeles forglemmelige - og det er stadigvæk et plus i forhold til Hermano-pladerne, hvor en større del af materialet var lige så irriterende ringe, som 'Chicken Delight' er det på denne plade".

"John Garcia and the Band of Gold slide down the sands of nostalgia hoarding everything that made the iconic frontman one of the most recognizable voices in rock history, backed by a solid band that know their role, and that is more than capable of delivering a fairly decent blend of stoner and classic rock'n'roll without any superfluous embellishment. It's this time of the year and the snows of winter are already melting. John Garcia has spoken".

"Reckon we can get through a John Garcia album review without mentioning Kyuss? Since the breakup of that genre-defining band, Garcia has regular delivered satisfying slabs of desert rock goodness ... This is Garcia's third solo album - the `Band of Gold' moniker is just a new name given to the band he's been with for a while since they were more involved with the songwriting this time - since 2014, and may well be his best yet".
