Pitchfork Media stated "Young & Sick is a remarkably polished debut, with each song boasting careful, painstaking arrangements and adept uses of space. It's charming, undeniable music that bops its way out onto the dance floor with relaxed charm, and it shimmers with the seductive murmur of a lounge staple."[1] Earmilk added the album was "the stuff of music lovers' dreams."[4]
