Music's Dave DiMartino ranked Scobberlotchers third on his list "Best Albums of 2016."[6] Now Then's Zachary Freeman reviewed the album favorably with "references to figures as diverse as Ezra Pound, Henry Darger, Theresa May and Fernando Pessoa demonstrate Momus's propensity to tackle more subject matter in an individual album than most groups achieve in their entire discography."[2]
