Tom Morgan, in PopMatters, describes Fires "tone" as one of "pure, scorching heat", and observes that it treats of themes including climate change and sociopolitical tensions. Morgan argues that Fire is Martin's "finest" as The Bug. In Le Devoir, giving the album four stars, Philippe Renaud notes that the elements of grime, dancehall, and electronic music in Fire "add fuel to the fire" of Martin's "indignation".
