The album was highly praised by critics, getting a rating of 99/100 (universal acclaim) by Metacritic.[2] The Irish Times' Jim Carrol wrote, "Holmes does not disappoint, creating powerfully evocative, engaging and moving sound essays on life, loss, mortality, brotherhood and memory. [...] Holmes’ selections for the small hours are full of heft, melancholy and deeply felt connections."[3] Brian Coney of The Quietus wrote, “Few individuals fit the mould for a much-loved, artist-curated compilation series quite as comfortably as David Holmes. [...] In taking our hand but never gripping too tight, Holmes taps into something that even the best Late Night Tales compilations sometimes neglect: the pure self-therapy of total escapism."[6] Ransom Note author Joe Roberts wrote, "If there is such thing as a soul, then Holmes has poured his own into this."[7]
