Max Savage Levenson of Paste reviewed The Universe Smiles Upon You is "a subtle dance, a constellation of small movements and highly nuanced arrangements that unfolds seamlessly, like ripples on the water." [3] Peter Helman of Stereogum said "The album is something both groove-heavy and dreamy, and it absolutely evokes the deep-in-the-wilderness". [4]
All tracks are written by Laura Lee and Mark Speer, except "The Man Who Took My Sunglasses", written by Andy Wilkins.
