Critical reception.
"Expert in a Dying Field" received acclaim from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 83 based on 15 reviews.
Jonathan Wright with "God Is in the TV" states "It appears to be in the band's DNA that they can keep creating this brand of addictive indie pop songs that all feel like essential additions to their already strong back catalogue." Laura Snapes, for "Pitchfork", asserts that the album is "brimming with smart power-pop that brings to mind the casual virtuosity of '90s Aimee Mann and the bonhomie and euphoria of Superchunk and Fountains of Wayne." Poetic Justice Magazine concluded that "Expert in a Dying Field" is "an impressive and engaging record".
