Reception


Lung of Love received positive reviews from critics noted at review aggregator Metacritic. It has a weighted average score of 74 out of 100, based on four reviews. Editors at AllMusic Guide scored this release 3.5 out of five stars, with critic Thom Jurek noting Ray's shift to Americana, paired with music that is "tight and declamatory". Writing for American Songwriter, Kenny Herzog rated this release 3.5 out of five stars, praising the collaborations on the album, but writing that it came together with "great passion and immediacy, but not much belaboring over sequencing and synchronicity". Megan Troper of PopMatters scored this album a seven out of 10, characterizing the music as sounding like a "new, slightly offbeat Indigo Girls record, and this is anything but surprising". In Glide Magazine, Peter Zimmerman rated Lung of Love an eight out of 10, noting that there are many stand-out tracks that are among the best in Ray's 25-year career, but that one or two feel "phoned-in".
