Reception
Tim Sendra of AllMusic remarked in his review of the album, "They've earned their right to be thought of as one of the great bands of their time, and records like Letters to Ordinary Outsiders are the reason why."[3] Louder Than War's Andy Brown described the album as "a bold and inspired release from a band that are still madly in love with that wild, dirty, pounding and ecstatic sound."[1] Jason Anderson of Uncut rated it eight out of ten, describing it as a "scrappy yet sharply rendered ninth album" that "makes for a very endearing restatement of purpose."[4] BrooklynVegan remarked, "The album was conceived as a series of postcards to those 'ordinary outsiders', and this batch of open-hearted jangle pop anthems doesn't require membership in a secret club to enjoy."[2]
