solid in its musical, lyrical and thematic execution," and called the band "passionate innovators." He added that without the Choir, "it's possible there would be no Switchfoot, no O.C. Supertones — and beyond SoCal, no sense of how to do Christian rock right." However, some reviews were more mixed. Matt Crossman at Cross Rhythms complained that the album "rarely accelerated out of second gear. Several tunes could easily have featured at any time in the band's career, and overall feel achingly familiar." This was echoed in the review from Somewhere Cold Records, with the claim that "the songs on this CD still retain a rather conventional feel," even though "the music is well-arranged, well-produced, and features touching lyrics that speak about a variety of life issues." L. Keane at Hybrid Magazine agreed with the latter statement, saying that O How The Mighty Have Fallen was "a memorable and relatable listening experience," and was "warmly comfortable on first listen, like the homecoming of an old friend who has been too long gone."
