According to review aggregator Metacritic, which compiles and averages reviews from well-known music critics, Overjoyed has a score of 74 out of 100, indicating generally favorable reviews. [2] Paul McGuinness, writing in Record Collector , said that "Overjoyed is a brilliant album – quite probably the best new record from a guitar band all year." [9] Mark Deming of AllMusic noted that the album is more cheerful lyrically than is typical for Half Japanese's work. [3] Some critics gave the album mixed reviews; Adam Kivel wrote that the album's "clean production...too frequently redoubles the intentional toothlessness of the lines." [5]
