Critic Reviews
Show All-
Billboard
He isn't simply going about his business-as-usual fun on this album.
-
LA Times
If he's not having fun, how are we supposed to?
-
Spin
He’s chosen good material and done right by it.
-
Country Exclusive
I would not recommend this album by any means, but do listen to the last three songs.
-
The New York Times
His most mature, and almost studiously un-fun album.
-
Entertainment Weekly
It’s not all babes and brewskis.
-
Boston Globe
He might be scowling on the cover of his fifth album, “Kill the Lights,” but Bryan is taking a more measured approach to celebrating this time around.
-
Daily News
Bryan has hardly ditched his old ways entirely.
-
Rolling Stone
Packed with big hooks and Nashville clichés as fun as they come
-
Kurrent Music
Some of the latter style of songs have the best lyrics he’s delivered for a while
-
All Music
An inclusive record that plays to teenage desires as effectively as memories of an adolescence left behind.
-
San Diego Union Tribune
Bryan isn't taking any big left turns with "Kill the Lights," but he is showing he can grow in ways that reflect his age and experience.
-
Sputnik Music
Overall, I expected a lot more out of Bryan.
-
Cleveland.com
It's a new phase. And a welcome one.
-
Washington's Top News
Continues fine form with super new CD
-
Music Times
If you're looking for a party country album for 2015 with some deep grooves, this is definitely it.
-
Taste of Country
The hip-hop influenced tracks are edgier. The hip-shaking rockers are a little louder. The love songs are more sincere, and more personal than ever.
-
Digital Journal
Bery versatile and diverse.
-
New England Country Music
There is no way that this album does not reach the top spot on the charts, and quickly.
-
The Independent
It sounds like someone chewed up, swallowed, and vomited the worst mainstream music has to offer.
-
One Country
The tracks are more mature than his last album, but it is easy to see he hasn’t even reached his full-potential yet.
-
Pop Matters
The notion of pleasure as central to his music came to mind for me.
-
The Shotgun Seat
Pushes Boundaries and Returns to Roots.
-
The Bulletin
Bryan’s most mature album to date
-
Boston Herald
Bryan wants to take you to a rave in a cornfield.
-
Gulf News
Country music’s reigning entertainer of the year is expanding his themes and sound
-
The Daily Times
I wouldn’t be surprised if, two hours after listening to this album, you find yourself hugging the nearest toilet and heaving up the contents of your stomach.
-
Entertainment Focus
A solid record that will likely build further on his impressive success.
-
The News
There is a lack of substantial content to be found anywhere in the album.
-
Six Shooter Country
Knocked it out of the park again
-
Keep It Country Kids
This guy is methodically destroying country music
-

Definitely not recommended.
