Awarding the album four stars at Worship Leader, Jay Akins states, "Bright Side is a solid offering of music that works well in a student ministry or outreach setting."[3] Sarah Fine, giving the album four stars by New Release Today, writes, "Technicalities aside, this is a strong debut from a band that has the potential to stay the course for years to come."[2] Rating the album four stars from 365 Days of Inspiring Media, Jonathan Andre says, "what Bright Side delivers is good radio pop- and if the album is taken and listened as it is rather than what we all wish it to be, the album will serve as a great vessel for praise and worship, which is exactly what OBB accomplish within these 12 tracks."[1]
