The album also garnered SLASH some of the best critical acclaim of his career, with Jude Gold of Guitar Player noting the album, "features some of the warmest-rock guitar textures, most dimensional and contrapuntal guitar arrangements, and most downright killin' riffs Slash has ever delivered" (October 2014 cover story) and M Music & Musicians'Russell Hall praising, "WORLD ON FIRE is nonetheless focused firmly on whatSlash does best-delivering searing, guitar-drenched rock. In his nearly three-decade career, that consistency has never wavered" (Feb-April 2015 cover story).
