}}AllMusic reviewer Alex Ogg gave Ricochet Days a mixed review, saying that it Began Modern English's "slow decline toward the status of just another synth band." He warned readers that "The material, though beautifully produced by the reliable Hugh Jones and boasting some pliable hooks, lacks the conviction and attack of old. "Hands Across the Sea" and "Spinning Me Round" are serviceable but hardly vital additions to the band's songbook."[2]
