Giving the album a B at CCM Magazine, David Mackle writes, "this group is proving worthy of independence."[1] Russ Breimeier, signaling in a two and a half star review from Christianity Today, states, "Once Again is not bad, and there may be enough to recommend to those who never get enough of modern worship."[2] Mike Rimmer, rating the album an eight out of ten for Cross Rhythms, says, "Billy has a fine voice, good ideas but still I believe his best work is ahead and I really want Fusebox to take an even edgier turn in order to stand out from the crowd."[3] Josh Taylor, awarding the album three and a half stars at Jesus Freak Hideout, describes, "Once Again is a completely different experience, and well worth a listen."[4] Rating the album a four out of five from The Phantom Tollbooth, Andrew West Griffin states, " a stellar second album called Once Again".[5]
