Overall reception to Running With the Hurricane was positive. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the album received an average score of 80, based on 11 reviews.[4]
Kat Bouza from Rolling Stone said the album "finds the group embracing a gentler, more introspective approach" that is an "expansion of the groundwork previously laid by the band rather than a complete reinvention."[5]
Cat Woods from NME observed that the trio abandoned "their indie punk beginnings" but that the album "offers songs more mature but no less magnificent" than the group's previous work.[6]
Timothy Monger from AllMusic said Hurricane "feels like a calm exhalation from a band who have metaphorically passed through a storm and learned a great deal in the process," noting the songs have a "relaxed, lived-in feeling to them."[7]
