Ben Rickaby, indicating in a four star review by HM Magazine , recognizes, "Future Golden Age isn’t strictly metalcore, and it is a fabulous album for fans of the band and for fans of the metalcore world." [2] Awarding the album three and a half stars at Jesus Freak Hideout, Michael Weaver states, "Future Golden Age doesn't reach the level of Backdraft." [3] Scott Fryberger, rating the album three and a half stars for Jesus Freak Hideout, describes, "Future Golden Age is a solid album, but feels a little long and maybe slightly disjointed. It gets better with repeat listens, but it doesn't have the staying power that Backdraft has. That being said, and with the disappointing offerings of Christian heavy music in 2015, Fallstar's latest is among the highlights of the genre for the year." [4] Giving the album four and a half stars from Jesus Freak Hideout, Lucas Munachen writes, "Future Golden Age closes 2015 in epic fashion". [5] Mark Rice, signaling in a four star review at Jesus Freak Hideout, describes, "the band's mixture of punk, alt rock, rapcore, and metal is easy to digest and fun to rock out to." [1]
