a comedy." and criticized it for being overambitious, having "croaking" singing, and a presumptuous release. Heather Phares of Allmusic described Mount Eerie as "deeply beautiful and unnerving, as well as deeply thoughtful". In a review for PopMatters, Adam Dlugacz gave the album a positive review, especially noting that "it is in the details that Phil Elvrum's latest opus unfolds". Stylus Magazines Ed Howard wrote that Mount Eerie makes listeners "get to travel with him [Elverum] into the uncharted next ocean of Microphones territory." A guest writer of Tiny Mix Tapes, who gave the album a perfect score, felt that "Elvrum on record is the same Elvrum in reality", and that "it's nice to know that Elvrum is lucid on both sides." In 2019, the album was included on Treblezine list of "essential" psychedelic folk albums. In 2020, Bandcamp Daily'' called the album "Elverum's most elemental but complex album" and highlighted the album's seamless transitions between genres.
