Critical reception
[ edit ]
Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating AllMusic [2]
In a retrospective review for AllMusic , William Cooper gave Ripe three out of five stars, describing the album as "addictive ear candy" and that band member Caroline Buckley sings "with confidence and clarity." He described the opening track, "This Is Your Life", as "funky [and] beautifully produced", and "May This Be Your Last Sorrow" as "eerie", though going on to write that the eight remaining tracks "don't quite scale the same heights", yet "Buckley's extraordinary pipes save the material from sinking into mediocrity."[2]
