Reception

On June 26, 2017, All About Jazz critic John Kelman wrote: "Lantern makes clear that... Oregon remains as effortlessly surprising and holistically inimitable as it's ever been." Regarding the band's new bassist, Kelman remarked: "...while the influx of new blood has altered the group's complexion to some extent, it remains a group that sounds like no other. Simply put: Lantern remains an album that could be made by no-one else but Oregon."[2]
