Critical reception
Writing for QRO Magazine, Ted Chase described that the album has the capability of being a major hit saying "perhaps they're too artistic to be as big as the likes of Twenty One Pilots (who they recently toured with), and too tough to pin down, genre-wise. But that's because they actually successfully mix their influences into something special." Chase gave the album an 8 out of 10.
Andrew Duncan, writing for Selective Memory magazine offered a more mixed review of Fake Tunes. Duncan said that the album sees Bear Hands "caught between a rock and a hard place. Too young to slow down but too adult to be reckless, that is the underlying presence within the songwriting of Fake Tunes. Bear Hands have always been an intriguing fixture in the indie rock world, yet Fake Tunes is a crossroads." Duncan gave Fake Tunes three stars out of five
