Critical reception

Paul Simpson of AllMusic wrote, "Stott's music is disorienting and sickly, but it's also undeniably full of life, and It Should Be Us is just as fascinating as one would expect." Philip Sherburne of Pitchfork stated, "it takes post-punk's bleak worldview and reformats it for the 21st century, mimicking corrupt files to create a new music of technological failure." Ryan Keeling of Resident Advisor called it "a continuation of one of the most impressive artistic developments we've had in recent electronic music."
