My Kind of Country
The album was massively successful, and is one of Garth’s best selling records, with 19 million sales worldwide to date. It’s also surprisingly good, and surprisingly country, although some tracks are disposable.

All Music
Part of the problem with Fresh Horses is that it embraced arena rock instead of merely flirting with it; as a result, large portions of his audience refused to follow him. Sevens corrects that misstep by retreating to traditional country territory and establishing a new, folky country-pop direction.

Sevens is not really the album to get you into Garth Brooks. Sure, it has some good and a few great moments, but this is more for the diehard fans.

People
A slightly grittier Garth muscles his way through this album.

All the songs are good, but of course some are better than others, to me anyway, or maybe it's just that they hit a nerve with me, remind me of someone something, or are just What I Like.

Entertainment Weekly
Sevens is Brooks’ weakest album to date — and a questionable gamble from an artist for whom winning is everything. It’s the sound of tumbling dice and, just maybe, a superstar’s toppling ego.
