The Advocate opined that "the predominant use of acoustic guitar with electric instruments is nothing new, but the Grapes of Wrath maintains a warm sound without ever once sounding wimpy." [6] The Daily Breeze called the album "an uneven but often captivating collection of delicate folk-rock, with lots of strumming acoustic guitars and some winning melodies." [7]

AllMusic wrote that "the jangly guitars and harmonies win out for a pleasing, though unspectacular, debut." [5]
