The Belfast Telegraph wrote that it was "an upbeat pop album, with a polished sound and an easy-listening vibe. Perhaps the only thing reminiscent of Clannad is Bridin's voice, which is beautifully soft and restrained - and yes, there are a few layered, echoey backing vocals to show it off to full effect."[2]
Jackie Hayden wrote in HotPress, "Brennan has a faultless voice, but she’s poorly served on her debut by songs that sound like they came off a production line in LA., and in the end Eyes of Innocence fails to live up to the high standards of originality already achieved by the family business."[3]
Justin Elswick in MusicalDiscoveries described the album as being "more modern and beat-heavy than her sisters' work, the tracks on Eyes of Innocence provide a heavenly, chilled-out listening experience.[4]
