While the song has not been released as a single, it was the third song from the album to be publicly available on stream prior to release, after "Back to the Shack" and "Cleopatra", and was made available to download with album pre-orders.[1][2] CompositionJosh Terry from Consequence of Sound described "The British Are Coming" as "Rife with anthemic, first-raising choruses and fireworks-like guitar solos".[3] Including acoustic guitars and references to the American Revolutionary War, Carolyn Menyes at Music Times described the guitar solos as "old school Weezer".[4] ReceptionJosh Terry at Consequence of Sound states ""The British Are Coming" highlights Weezer at their very best...the explosive song makes good on its Revolutionary War references." Terry also regards the song to be more promising than "Back to the Shack" and "Cleopatra".[3] Carolyn Menyes of Music Times states "In the same vein as previously released Everything Will Be Alright In The End music, Weezer is all about pleasing the fans and returning to their 1990s glory days, and it's happened once again."[4] Marc Hirsh from The Boston Globe noted that only Weezer can pull off a song like this "without smirking", and highlighted it as an essential track.[5] Chris Schulz of The New Zealand Herald was more critical of the song, calling it "nothing more than mid-album filler."[6] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.prefixmag.com/news/stream-weezer-the-british-are-coming/78302/|title=Stream Weezer 'The British Are Coming'|work=Prefixmag|accessdate=October 16, 2014}} {{Weezer}}{{DEFAULTSORT:British Are Coming}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.stereogum.com/1706680/weezer-the-british-are-coming/mp3s/|title=Weezer – "The British Are Coming" - Stereogum|work=Stereogum|accessdate=October 16, 2014}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://consequenceofsound.net/2014/09/weezer-releases-great-new-song-the-british-are-coming-listen/|title=Weezer release new song "The British Are Coming", announce tour dates - Consequence of Sound|work=Consequence of Sound|accessdate=October 16, 2014}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.musictimes.com/articles/10695/20140923/weezer-the-british-are-coming-new-song-everything-will-be-alright-in-the-end-listen.htm|title=Weezer Declare 'The British Are Coming' In Guitar-Filled New Song from 'Everything Will Be Alright in the End' [LISTEN]|work=Music Times|accessdate=October 16, 2014}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bostonglobe.com/arts/music/2014/10/05/weezer-everything-will-alright-end/JrJtkqybw5fuIJFsDPiz3K/story.html|title=Weezer, 'Everything Will Be Alright in the End'|work=BostonGlobe.com|accessdate=October 16, 2014}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/news/article.cfm?c_id=1501119&objectid=11340451|title=Album review: Weezer, Everything Will Be Alright in the End|work=The New Zealand Herald|accessdate=October 16, 2014}} 4 : 2014 songs|Song recordings produced by Ric Ocasek|Songs written by Rivers Cuomo|Weezer songs |
