Análisis (en inglés) - :
{$Nonpoint} deliver another set of angst-filled {\hard rock} that challenges the notion that modern {\metal} eschews melodicism. Vocalist {$Elias Soriano} displays a truly versatile set of pipes on their latest, {^Recoil}, a record that falls short of elevating {$Nonpoint} to the level of contemporaries like {$Rage Against the Machine} or {$Tool}, yet strikes a winning balance between the angular crunch of {\nu-metal} and the anthemic brooding of {\heavy metal}'s heydays. The serpentine melody lines that weave their way through {&"The Truth"} and {&"Impossible Needs"} are indicative of a group that's not content with just pounding the listener into submission. Each time a song veers into {\atonal} tedium, someone comes in with a curve ball, whether it's a sneaky guitar line that changes the direction of the verse or a strategically placed backwards cymbal swell. Some of the tracks sound like filler, especially the ill-conceived remake of {$Phil Collins}' {&"In the Air Tonight,"} but even then the band sounds road-weary tight. While by no means revolutionary, {^Recoil} shows promise, and if {$Nonpoint} continue to steer away from {\alternative metal}'s whiny and calculated aggression, they could very well break out from the middle of the pack. ~ James Christopher Monger, All Music Guide
