The Philadelphia Inquirer wrote thatOne Man Mutiny "contains riff-driven rockers, a couple of tunes with a countryish bent, and quieter moments that recall Replacements leader Paul Westerberg at his most reflective and openhearted."[11]The Boston Globe noted the "loose-limbed, Stones-y rave-ups."[17] TheArkansas Democrat-Gazette deemed the album a "gritty set that has some nice slide guitar action."[15]
NPR praised "Stinson's amiable rasp and keen ear for melody."[18]Cincinnati CityBeat called the album "raw and elemental Stonesy rock with twangy overtones, circaExile on Main Street."[19] TheLong Island Press considered "Match Made in Hell" to be "a tongue-in-cheek odd couple ditty with a luau vibe."[16]Spin labeledOne Man Mutiny "a homespun collection of crystalline guitar-pop and confessional balladry."[20]
