According to the review aggregator Metacritic ,We Still Don't Trust You received "generally favorable reviews" based on a weighted average score of 64 out of 100 from 5 critic scores. Writing for Clash ,Robin Murray compared the album to its prequel,saying that the album was "even more bloated" despite some positive elements. Murray noted that although there were several memorable tracks,"there's a huge amount [of songs] that simply passes you by" due to a lack of structure and substance. [19] Sputnikmusic 's Dakota West Foss wrote that the album had "little to offer" and wrote that the length of the album fed into his negative review;Foss described it as "somewhat of a tortuous war of attrition". Foss described the album as "airy","forgettable",and a prime example of "quantity over quality". [21]
