| Incendiary Magazine | favorable [4] |
| Pitchfork | 4.3/10 [5] |
| PopMatters |   [6] |
Stewart Mason of AllMusic gave the album 3.5 stars out of 5, saying, "DJ Mayonnaise does a fair job of keeping the potentially over-familiar arrangements and samples from coalescing into just another bit of negligible atmosphere for a boutique hotel bar near you, through unexpectedly tuneful melodies like 'Easily Distracted' and the album's one stylistic departure, the sneering Bush slam 'Strateegery.'" [2] Lana Cooper of PopMatters commented that "Still Alive isn't a bad sophomore effort, but it's certainly not an epic masterwork that requires eight years in the making." [6] She added, "While there are definite moments that shine, there are others that take a leap backwards or just stay floating somewhere in the middle." [6]
On May 14, 2007, the album was included on XLR8R 's "Office Top Ten Album Picks" list. [7]
