Critical reception



Three Bells received a score of 81 out of 100 on review aggregator Metacritic based on nine critics' reviews, indicating "universal acclaim". Uncut stated that "this is an album that sounds like it's had time spent on it. It's brilliantly recorded, pristine and perfectly imperfect." Mojo wrote that "this double LP has sonic coherence across 65 minutes of taut, sinewy but ever-unpredictable compositions, with a subtly altered sound palette". Exclaim!'s Bruno Coulombe" felt that the album "immediately suggests a denser approach, not just in scope and length but in structure too" than Hello, Hi (2022), as "many of the tracks here form multi-part journeys where contrasting ideas are juxtaposed". Lewis Wade of The Skinny called it "a paranoid, claustrophobic enigma. He can still shred with the best of them ('Wait', 'Hi Dee Dee', 'Watcher'), but across this hour-plus album he revels in upending expectations" with "abrupt tonal shifts" into different genres.
AllMusic's Mark Deming wrote that "one could credit the easygoing but solid interplay between Segall and his accompanists for giving this music such an engaging feel, but most of the time, Segall is backing himself, dubbing bass, drums, and percussion over his stacks of guitar". Pitchfork's Stuart Berman described the album as "a mid-career standout full of gunky riffs and tender love" as Segall "delivers some of his most immaculately constructed grotesquerie to date".
