Critical reception
Rolling Stone magazine wrote: "This is one of the best new live bands I heard last year, and they’ve put a lot of that power into their first album."[4] William Ruhlmann wrote in a mixed to favorable review in AllMusic "the Alarm seemed to play every song as if it was the climax of their set. In the short term, that excited listeners, however; Declaration was a number six hit in England and broke through to the Top 50 in the U.S. In retrospect, it’s more smoke than fire."[5]
