Critical reception

Шаблон:Album ratings

JT Griffith of AllMusic gave Against the Stars 3 out of 5 stars. He compared it to the Dambuilders' previous albums, writing, "If Encendedor and Ruby Red were more akin to Sub Pop records, then Against the Stars is closer to Cheap Trick arena rock."[2] Jim Sullivan of the Boston Globe was highly favorable in his assessment of the album, writing, "The 13 tracks show a mix of pop-craft smarts and art-rock leanings. There's variety and wit, bracing guitar and violin parts, and a keen sense of melody that is consistent throughout."[5] Writing in the Hartford Courant, Roberto Gonzalez praised both the album and the band as a whole: "Intelligent, well-crafted and intense, Boston's Dambuilders create a swirling sound of violin and electric guitar, wrapped around a tight rhythm section. While their last album, "Ruby Red," was all prickly pop, their new effort displays their true influences."[6] Mark Lepage of the Montreal Gazette was less favorable in his review. He gave the album a rating of 5 out of 10, quipping, "Decades of technological progress, and we get a new Missing Persons with Howard Jones fronting."[7]
