Reception

Critical reception to Music for Cars has been mainly positive. According to Rolling Stone, "The 1975 wrap two pop anthems inside a trio of hazy, atmospheric journeys".[2] Venture Mag rated the record 7/10, describing it as "sonically diverse", bringing "an honest, fresh sound to alternative pop" and "genuinely exciting" to listen, but also "possibly too experimental for a long-lasting affect".[3]
