Critical reception.
"Today We're the Greatest" received positive acclaim from critics. Writing for "The Sydney Morning Herald", Craig Mathieson called it "an impressive record" that "believes in discovery and leans towards affirmation". Ben Salmon of "Paste" said the album "sounds great, and whatever it lacks in the element of surprise, it makes up for with consistency." Compared to their previous album, "Lost Friends" (2018), Dave Beech of "Clash" concluded "Today We're the Greatest" "is calmer and more considered record," and "harbours warmth and richness in abundance, but a sense of fragility and vulnerability also." Reviewing for "Dork", Edie McQueen praised the sonic details with the incorporation of "the tweeting of birds, the patter of rain, and even the beating heart of members’ Hannah Joy and Tim Fitz’s unborn son, taken from a sonogram."
