"Album of the week" - "Warm, wise and still capable of surprise ... With enough melodies to appease the feather-cut-dads fanbase, and enough experimentation to slake his own curveball tastes, this is have-your-cake-and-eat-it Weller".

"Paul Wellers energi og engagement er altså af en anden skuffe. Den nu 62-årige såkaldte Modfather er fremme ved solo-udspil nummer 15 ... På 'On Sunset' vender han tilbage til soulen, men med fornyet nerve og bid - plus hans gode faste band og fine gæstesolister - som får musikken til at lyde helt frisk".

"The album swings back and forth between now and nostalgia, as Weller tries to reconcile the desire to look back with his constant fear of stagnation. There are several songs that could have been on Style Council albums - solid, sometimes superb, soul anthems like "Baptiste", "Village", "Walkin'" - all of which happen to feature contributions from Mick Talbot. But there's also "Mirror Ball" and "Earth Beat", both of which carry the influence of Ghost Box ... On Sunset demonstrates that complacency remains his greatest fear and most powerful muse".

"Paul Weller er der noget nostalgisk over. Den nu 62-årige rockstjerne brød [igennem] i begyndelsen af 1970'erne (...) De seneste 30 år har han gjort sig gældende i eget navn, og nu har han udgivet sit soloalbum nummer 15. ... Nej, dette udspil er ikke helt på højde med solodebuten, 'Paul Weller' (1992), eller mesterværkerne 'Wild Wood' (1993) og 'Stanley Road' (1995), men aktuelle 'On Sunset' vidner om, at Paul Weller tilsyneladende aldrig løber tør for stærke melodier".
