Aiding & Abetting gave Newer Wave, Vol. 2 a positive review and called the album "better than the first, both in song selection and in execution" and "it does rate highly in the fun factor."[2] Keith Farley of allmusic gave it a negative review, awarding the compilation one and a half out of five stars.[1] In writing for Ink 19, critic Eric Sanders praised the artists' re-imagining of the originals, saying "the ideas are fresh and good, the material familiar and worth revisiting."[3]
