Critical reception
At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, Fever Dream received an average score of 74% based on 9 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[1]
Ali Maloney of The Skinny gave the album 4 stars out of 5, describing it as "a suave cocktail of rolling snares, haunting synth structures, downtempo dub and jittering slices of shoegaze – tastefully evoking the strengths of various modern masters, from FlyLo to Amon Tobin – as swirling, cut-up vocals bounce gleefully around in the distance."[7]

gollark: But what if you remember your password but bees take it and your password manager lacks an option for it? WHAT THEN?
gollark: Yes, I use a password manager, but options like "I am actively unable to remember anything" would really add to password-using systems.
gollark: I really want other stuff to have those forgot password options now?
