Reception
Undefeated was met with highly positive reviews by critics. Multiple sources noted Bare's diverse and unique style on Undefeated and his previous albums, despite his father Bobby Bare having multiple country music hits, with Exclaim! writer Matthew McKean saying that Bare "wasn't content to hitch a ride with his Country Music Hall of Fame father or the Nashville royalty around whom he grew up". Blurt Magazine writer John Moore gave the album 4 stars stating that "it’s simply confounding that Bare and his band aren’t as big as groups like Arcade Fire and My Morning Jacket". Hal Horowitz from American Songwriter stated that "just when you think you have a sense of Bobby Bare Jr.’s style, he up and changes it", though still thought the record was "occasionally too scattershot".
