Reviews for "Carts in the Rain": "A frantic, fuzz filled, reverb drenched parcel that continuously delivers tongue-in-cheek lyrics through a slacker voice." "The album has a quiet sense of urgency that balances reflective moods with subtle forward motion. Acid Smoothie can handle emotional tension well, as shown by songs like "Still Standing Still" and "Stagger." The lyrics have a heavy, reflective quality, but they never get boring. The pacing, on the other hand, keeps the listener interested and makes the album feel like a single, smooth journey rather than a collection of ideas that aren't connected." "From the opening moments on 'Still Standing Still', the record hits with a full-bodied force that immediately distinguishes these versions from their earlier incarnations. Dunne proves that the bedroom studio is still a place of discovery, capable of producing both overwhelming volume and strange texture. The guitars are gloriously in-your-face, drenched in fuzz and pushed to the edge without tipping into chaos for the hell of it. Massive drums drive everything forward with a physical intensity that makes the album feel tailor-made for a sweaty room packed with bodies."
