Reception

At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, Alone for the First Time received an average score of 72% based on 9 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".

Felicity Martin of Clash gave the album an 8 out of 10, saying: "It's a sad record, but one that envelops you in a warm hug, wipes your eyes and plays with your hair." Jonah Bromwich of Pitchfork Media said, "Alone for the First Time is the furthest he's pushed himself, and the growing pains on the album can be chalked up to the strain of trying new things, a kind of adolescent awkwardness that shows signs of maturing into something sophisticated and unique."
