Critical reception

In a Voyage review for Drowned in Sound, Krystina Nellisi said that "[o]pener 'Into the Clouds' joins in the fun with an intro sounding like the soundtrack to a late Eighties' warrior epic, a keyboard organ mode announcing their arrival into the World of Pop."^[1] Andy Baber of musicOMH praised the song's "dreamy sentiment of escapism and huge soundscape".^[2]
