"Welcome Back to Milk scans as an overhaul of its protagonist's romantic history, a poised reassessment of domestic situations that seemed okay at the time, but maybe weren't the best, after all. Wherever her gaze turns, Houghton's conviction is lethal. On "Mr. Hyde", she shreds a domineering narcissist to pieces; on "Four in the Morning", she shreds herself to pieces; on "Black Flag", she simply shreds. This all serves a winning mission statement: Radically reinterpret your past, and your present will look after itself".

"Pludselig vrimler det med hidsige guitar-riff, aggressive trommer og snerrende vokaler, der i demonstrativ udstrækning dominerer den revitaliserede Beth Jeans Houghton. Welcome Back to Milk rummer dog også en håndfuld ballader, der adskiller sig mindre drastisk fra forløberens skæringer, og genkendeligheden er egentlig vældig rar, selv om det er forfriskende med den drastisk forandrede retning. Der er stærke sager blandt de tunge og hårdtrockende numre, men også mere jævne øjeblikke, og balladerne skiftevis keder og betager".
