Reception
Lucky for You received positive reviews from critics noted at review aggregator Metacritic. It has a weighted average score of 83 out of 100, based on seven reviews. Emma Swann of DIY Magazine gave this release 5 out of 5 stars, calling it "a near-perfect album if there ever was one". In Exclaim!, Kate Shepherd gave Lucky for You an 8 out of 10, calling it lyrically "a study in contrasts" and "a confident, compelling record that reveals—and revels in—the softness behind the feedback and fuzz that continue to make Bully a force to be reckoned with". The Line of Best Fit's Steven Loftin rated this release a 9 out of 10, calling it "undoubtedly Bully’s best album yet". Both Paste and Stereogum named this album of the week: the former had a review from Eric Bennett scored 8.6, calling it "an open-hearted, anthemic career best" and in the latter, James Rettig calls this release "the kind of flex that’s hard to pull off for a project a decade into its existence". In a June round-up of the best albums of 2023, the publication placed this at sixth, with Rachel Brodsky writing that it "takes new strides—the tone is darker, muddier, and raspier—but it’s still 100 percent Bully, which means distortion-heavy hooks and total candor". On June 19, Paste reviewed the best albums of the year so far, ranking this at thirteenth for being "another strong collection of anthemic post-grunge that doubles as Bully’s poppiest record so far". Peyton Thomas of Pitchfork Media gave a more negative review, scoring the album a 6.6 out of 10, critiquing JT Daly's production and writing that "it’s heart-wrenching to imagine how much better these songs would be, how much more worthy of showcasing [frontwoman Alicia] Bognanno’s maturation as an artist, had she presided solely over production", but still praising the "lyrical introspection and emotional complexity" in the music.
