Ed Lawson of DIY gave it a 4.5-star rating, calling it "a record that makes the outfit's already fiery flame burn yet brighter."[1] In a 8/10 review for The Line of Best Fit, John Amen noted the release as "perhaps the grittiest and least satirical album in the Ho99o9 discography," stating "With Tomorrow We Escape, Ho99o9 remain uncompromising, railing against familial, cultural, and governmental hypocrisies."[6]
Giving it a 4/5 rating for Dork, Harry Shaw referred to it as "a declaration of survival, rage and identity. It doesn't just work, it hits like a detonation."[4] Kerrang!'s James Mackinnon called it "their most mature and focused album yet," assigning it a score of 4/5.[5]
Reviewing for Distorted, Gavin Brown gave it a 8/10 rating and described it as "another essential collection that contains all the riot starting mayhem we love from HO99O9 but this time round, they demonstrate an even more eclectic side to their music, and one that shows maturity too."[3] Referring to it as the group's "most vulnerable and exposed album to date", Sydney Peterson of Beats Per Minute remarked, "Tomorrow We Escape sees Ho99o9 infuse an ethereal, melancholy softness into a sound they'd already established and mastered."[2]
