Critical reception

Queen of Golden Dogs was met with "generally favorable" reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, this release received an average score of 76, based on 12 reviews.[2] Aggregator Album of the Year gave the release a 79 out of 100 based on a critical consensus of 11 reviews.[10]

Daniel Sylvester of Exclaim! noted the album "is more than a collection of novel (or classical) ideas, as much as it's a assembly of gorgeously written and expertly arranged musical concepts, showing Vessel making some of the most clear-eyed art of his career."[5] Nicholas Glover from The 405 noted that the album "is a bold and original statement that collides together emotions, textures and beats to gloriously dissonant effect. It’s also Vessel's best album to date."[3]
