According to the review aggregator Metacritic , Everything Squared received "universal acclaim" based on a weighted average score of 83 out of 100 from 7 critic scores. [4]

Jesse Dorris of Pitchfork commented that "Seefeel have always used vocals the way other bands used feedback or percussion, and Everything Squared highlight 'Multifolds' shows the wisdom of that choice, even as it indulges in a bit of nostalgia." [10] Ray Honeybourne of The Line of Best Fit stated, "this latest delightful enigmatic compound of sonics demonstrates that the wondrous Seefeel alchemy has not been lost." [9] Andy Kellman of AllMusic called it "nearly as engrossing as anything from the group's past." [8] Tristan Parker of DJ Mag stated, "It's weird and brilliant stuff, as always, quietly demonstrating why Seefeel have always been an important (and underrated) band." [11]

In August 2024, Vogue included the album on its list of the "15 Sadcore Albums to Get You Through the Fall". [12]
