"We are fans of (Manna) Zen at the X(102.9). They are the most creative band on the local scene, by far."

— Aaron Schachter , program director at X102.9, Jacksonville's New Rock Alternativ, email

"Manna Zen (is) one of the most original bands... And Zen Nation are crazy fans."

— X102.9 Jacksonville's New Rock Alternative , Twitter

"...every single live show being an unforgettable affair that must be experienced in order to capture the true ambiance... Manna Zen cannot be put into a set genre, which only helps to make their music more unique and uncommon... this band can only be described as one of a kind... There is really no one band that Manna Zen sounds like (besides themselves, of course), but if they had to be compared with other known bands, Manna Zen would be Taproot and KoRn mixed with Linkin Park plus a dash of Incubus and yes, all of those bands are necessary to attempt to describe Manna Zen’s unique style of music... The Balance of Things offers listeners a glimpse into the face melting abilities of Manna Zen. We dare you to listen to this album, go to a show, and not fall into the claws of the ZENation."

— Julie Goldstein of Backstage VIPS, Manna Zen – The Balance of Things – CD Review

"I became an instant fan... They mix so many genres... It reminded me of the first time I heard Linkin Park. Fresh, different, but I knew instantly that I liked it and I wanted to hear more! The band interacted well with the audience and it made for a really fun time."

— Melissa Landrum, Rock Concert Travelers

"Though their alternative rock feel may not be new, Manna Zen's lyrics and style definitely are... Influences from Papa Roach and Three Days Grace make this band liked by the alternative rock scene... The talent displayed from Manna Zen's guitars and the hard, rap rock style of the vocalist make for a good crowd jumping audience. This is a band you can't help but air drum and play air guitar to. It'd be a shame if Manna Zen weren't featured on the next Guitar Hero...."
