Clash rated the album nine out of ten, describing it as "an extraordinary achievement, a record that truly picks the listener up in one place, and deposits them in another," [6] while DIY noted in its review, "Jacob's tender touch on themes of fantasy, dreams and love feels earned across In Limerence, as if repairing themself via songwriting rather than declaring experiences from a distance," rating it four stars. [5]
The Skinny gave In Limerence a four-star rating, and described it as "at once confident and vulnerable" and "the product of deliberate action and agency". [10] The Guardian rated it three stars, stating "The Scottish songwriter delivers a confident, well-expressed debut even if their songs sometimes stray into overfamiliar indie-folk territory." [9] Billboard remarked, "Gliding between sublime melodies and grimy, guttural dissonance, the record is cinematic in its acoustic grandeur and intimate in its inspection." [11]
All tracks are written by Jacob Alon; "Home Tapes" written with Dan Carey.
