AllMusic[2]

Nitsuh Abebe of AllMusic gave it two and a half out of five stars, stating that the album contains few redeeming qualities and sounds dull compared to the band's previous output.[2] Trouser Press wrote that "Milky Juicy is the band’s most adventurous, eclectic record. Comfortable in what it can do but undaunted by what it can’t, Tiny Lights rifles through a sample-book’s worth of styles, never sticking with one sound two songs in a row."[3] Spin deemed the album "a whimsical AM-FM radio hybrid circa 1972 with the Beatles, Black Sabbath, Funkadelic, and Dusty Springfield beaming in."[1] The New Yorker called the album "a delight" and a "breezy AM-influenced hodgepodge of rock, folk, jazz, blues, and R&B."[4]
