I was pleasantly surprised and happily repented of my negative predisposition. The brothers have truly offered a well-crafted album in Crave, and have given listeners something fresh to hear. The lyrics have depth, the music has energy and it is balanced wonderfully. If this is how they begin, I will definitely be craving more fine songs in the future from for King & Country."[5] Jesus Freak Hideout's Michael Weaver said "Crave is full of soaring melodies as well as a stunning mix of guitars, piano, strings, keyboard, and electronic effects."[6] In addition, Weaver wrote "Crave has something great to offer at nearly every turn."[6] Weaver summed up "Crave, as a whole is nothing short of brilliant."[6] Christianity Today's Lisa Ann Cockrel said "Crave is full of hopeful anthems that ratify For King and Country's earnest moniker."[2] However, Cockrel wrote "More grit would have served the project well. Most tracks start with some creative promise, only to devolve into generic riffs."[2]New Release Tuesday's Sarah Fine said "Crave is hands-down one of the best debut projects I've heard from a group in years. Creative, poignant and moving, it comes from a very raw place of heartache and hope, never backing down from the honest truth, yet never shying away from the restoration found in Christ. Musically, it's unlike anything in the genre right now. Haunting, playful and deep all at once, it could quite easily beat out many of its mainstream counterparts."[7] New Release Tuesday's Jonathan Francesco said "Crave is destined to be a classic and will hopefully prove to have legs and land on many year-end lists despite its early release."[8] Out Housers' Jeremy Shane said "because of the pop sound, I find all of their album to be pretty listenable, and there's nothing on it I really hate. Although also because of this some of my favorite songs on Crave are probably the less poppy and more unique sounding songs."[9] The reason for the low score is because Shane only considers that "there are two or three songs on it that will be added into my regular playlists in my own music."[9] Lastly, Shane wrote "I'd recommend this album to anyone into light or pop rock."[9] Track listing{{Track listing| extra_column = Producer | total_length = 41:47 | title1 = Light it Up | writer1 = Matt Hales, Joel Smallbone, Luke Smallbone | extra1 = Matt Hales | length1 = 3:31 | title2 = The Proof of Your Love | writer2 = Ben Glover, Jonathan Lee, Joel, Luke, Fred Williams | extra2 = Ben Glover | length2 = 3:17 | title3 = Missing | writer3 = Glover, Joel, Luke | extra3 = Shaun Shankel | length3 = 4:16 | title4 = Busted Heart (Hold On to Me) | writer4 = Glover, Joel, Luke, Jenna Torres | extra4 = Glover | length4 = 3:18 | title5 = People Change | writer5 = Chris Antblad, Glover | extra5 = Shankel | length5 = 3:53 | title6 = Middle of Your Heart | writer6 = Glover, Joel, Luke | extra6 = Glover | length6 = 3:21 | title7 = Love's to Blame | writer7 = Rebecca St. James, Joel, Luke | extra7 = Shankel | length7 = 4:27 | title8 = Fine Fine Life | writer8 = Ran Jackson, Ricky Jackson, Joel, Luke | extra8 = Shankel | length8 = 3:40 | title9 = Sane | writer9 = Tyler Hayes, Joel, Luke | extra9 = Shankel | length9 = 3:43 | title10 = Pushing on a Pull Door | writer10 = Hales, Joel, Luke | extra10 = Hales | length10 = 3:56 | title11 = Crave | writer11 = Shaun Shankel, Joel, Luke | extra11 = Hales | length11 = 4:25 }} An expanded edition was released in 2013 containing two additional songs: "The Proof of Your Love [The Monologue Mix]" and "Hope Is What We Crave".{{citation needed|date=July 2016}} ChartsAlbum
