Style and influences

Andy Thomas of Westword noted that "Prayers for Atheists is waiting patiently for the torch to be passed from social heavyweights like Rage Against the Machine — perhaps only to drop it and then watch it all burn."[4] Meanwhile, Alex Dunbar of Vice said: "What sets PFA apart from most rock-rap acts is that MC Jared Paul has some real flow mastery."[5]
