Reception

Addicted to Media claimed These Eyes Before "gives the feeling of hearing these songs for the first time and falling in love with them all over again" and that the band's "respect for the artists and the songs they covered is evident and the production of the songs is flawless."[5] Release Magazine gave the album six out of ten and said "Collide have developed their own sexy, slow, groovy sound over the years, and manage to keep that throughout, keeping it interesting" but that "they always slow the songs down, which means that some songs lose their energy in the process."[6]
