"The album's cover painting shows a verdant green oasis contained within a giant triangular greenhouse surrounded by a much gloomier landscape. It's an apt metaphor for this album, released in troubling times but guided by the perpetual search for inner spiritual light. Whatever the darkness outside, this is a record that reaches for joy and brightness within. In the Rainbow Rain is unapologetic and adventurous; through it, Sheff and Co. don't ask us to ignore the world's problems, just to keep dancing in spite of them".

"In places, the sombre mood and muted instrumentation of 2016's Away have been superseded by sly humour (on Don't Move Back to LA) or more upbeat arrangements, the likes of The Dream and the Light channelling Arcade Fire's passion without getting bogged down in their bombast. But elsewhere, Love Somebody and Human Being Song are so unengaging and bland, they slip past wraith-like, without leaving a footprint".

"Will Sheff makes kindness an aesthetic on this album of gentle, idiosyncratic songs about dog adoption, celebrities' emergency tracheotomies and finding transcendence in nature".
