Reception
The album received mostly positive reviews; the aggregator site Metacritic assigned it a weighted score of 74, indicating that critics were generally favorable. In Pitchfork, Ian Cohen assigned the album a score of 6.8 of a possible 10, saying that "Weaves is an impressive album about incapacitating infatuation, [but] it’s not always served by giving its ADD and OCD impulses equal say". Both Cohen and Mary Kate McGrath of Consequence note that Weaves is an attempt to make a case that indie rock can be musically innovative as a genre.
