Critical response
Like Rats received acclaim upon its release. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has received an average score of 64, based on 6 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews". Pitchfork Media's Stephen Deusner gave the album a mostly positive review stating, "His previous covers albums have been fan favorites, presenting his melancholy takes on songs by AC/DC, John Denver, Low, and Stephen Sondheim, but this new collection may be his most varied and adventurous. The track list portrays a man with broad listening habits, who not only translates these songs into his own particular style but erases the distinctions between genres."
