Commercial performance The album debuted and peaked at #4 on the
Canadian Albums Chart. The album was later certified
platinum, selling over 170,000 copies.
Critical reception The album received a "bad" rating from
NOW's Sarah Liss, who wrote "The tunes on Home are as watered-down, radio-friendly and lyrically vapid as you'd expect, but they're all over the musical map, jumping from whiny soul-lite to wannabe Loverboy 80s rawk to Simple Plan-worthy punk-pop." In a lukewarm review, David Hayden of
The Coast wrote "It doesn’t feel like Malcolm really cares about these tunes, as he never really sinks his teeth in like he did during the competition." ==Awards==
