A Ruthless Criticism of Everything Existing

Critical reception

David Jeffries of AllMusic gave the album 3.5 stars out of 5, saying, "Sole's 2012 effort is more connectable than his early work and worth a listen if alternative observations hold more attraction than easy answers." Chris Martins of Spin called it "his most accessible work since 2003's Selling Live Water." Scott Morrow of Alarm said: "Songs for the revolution have seldom been so danceable, fun, and — dare we say it — pretty."

Alarm included it on the "50 Favorite Albums of 2012" list, while Westword listed it as one of the best local albums of 2012.
