Victoria Segal of Mojo Magazine rated the album three stars and noted it as "delivered with an enduring conviction and (off-message, perhaps) vitality."[1]Spill Magazine assigned it a rating of four and a half out of five, describing it as "a brilliant album and a welcomed return from a friend who has been very missed."[4]Under the Radar gave Silver Shade a rating of six out of ten, referring to it as "a noble effort and a pleasant enough listen, but one that is weighed down by its own dramatic inclinations."[5]Spin Magazine remarked, "Silver Shade is what we can all hope to be at 67: imperfect, maybe expected, but also loud, lively, and unapologetically ourselves."[2]
