}}Giant Orange received generally positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has received an average score of 70, based on 6 reviews, indicating "generally favorable" feedback.[6] Chrysta Cherrie of AllMusic rated the album three and a half out of five stars, writing that "its bold catchiness will keep listeners engaged, from the major chord melody and mid-'90s Merge Records grit of opener "Gone All Summer," to the ringing guitar and back-and-forth harmonies of "Mercy-Go-Round."[8]
