Critical reception

On its release, Is Survived By received favorable reviews from music critics, with a 87/100 from review aggregate metacritic indicating universal acclaim. Citing the album's mature and personal lyric and vocalist Jeremy Bolm performance as the album highlights, it also received praise for the more mature ambitious approach to the bands songwriting, noting the expanding song lengths and musical variation as a sign of Touché Amorés growth as musicians.

Writing for Alternative Press, Scott Heisel wrote that "Is Survived By feels claustrophobic in the best way possible", and that "These breakdowns aren't musical; they're psychological.". David Anthony of the AV Club noting the band's musical evolution "Is Survived By is a transitory record for Touché Amoré, but it doesn’t suffer from this designation. As the band inches toward hardcore’s ceiling, it’s not abandoning the style. Rather, it’s merely embracing the malleable aspects"
