Here is how music critics have been responding to ENDLESS PRAISE:

“Here to sweep listeners into endless praise and all-out worship, Planetshakers’ 26th live recording brings the percussive, drum-heavy mix-up of genres within and between songs we’ve come to expect, but bumps it up a notch with feel-good fervor balanced by a heavy dose of gentle and heartfelt love. Planetshakers music, rife with unbridled energy, seismic emotion, percolating power pop, rock, and rhythm, electronic dance, and huge anthemic choruses, all deftly woven together with perfectly placed ballads, hasn’t lost its sheen.” – Worship Leader Magazine
