Currently, In This Moment is touring in support of last year's Godmode, one of their most successful recordings with fans and reviewers alike. Mike DeWald of Riff wrote, "At its core, the eighth album from SoCal rockers In This Moment is the natural extension of a sound the band has been cultivating for years." Wall of Sound wrote, "This album is excellent, especially if you want something different in the heavy music world." And Rock 'N' Load praised the album saying, "All in all, Godmode is a frantically beautiful collection of songs, a perfect change of pace and direction if you need a pallet cleanser. If you haven't delved into the world of In This Moment, this could just be the perfect time to get your hands dirty."
