Critical reception

Trouser Press wrote: "Both playful indie-poppers and studious chamber ensemble, Lullaby maps a course through ten songs, establishing and contrasting melodies, building acoustic walls of sound more akin to My Bloody Valentine than Mazzy Star." Exclaim! thought that Lullaby for the Working Class "have fully descended into over-orchestrated meaninglessness."
