Sadie Sartini Garner of Pitchfork remarked in her review of the album, "What keeps Tripla from being the kind of acrid, messy screed that sometimes tempts artists later in their career is the joy with which Berenyi and her bandmates play this music, the sense of wonder that clings to the sadness near the album's core." [2]

Wayne Carey of Louder Than War rated Tripla four and a half stars and commented "MB3 have laid down the gauntlet with this debut, showing there is life in perfect dreampop still to come." [7] Under the Radar described the album as "both resonant and introspective and can be enjoyed at low volume as upbeat morning music or as engaging rock music blasted at full volume," [3] while MusicOMH 's John Murphy noted that "Tripla isn't an album that sees Berenyi adopt a radical new direction, but an awful lot of people will be very pleased it exists." [8]

British monthly magazine Record Collector rated the album four stars and stated "On the strength of this fine merger of minds that come together on Tripla, more would be most welcome." [9]
