Reviews of Further were generally positive. Guy Oddy of The Arts Desk described the record as "Roy Orbison fronting Phil Spector's famous Wall of Sound", and stated that "while Richard Hawley has little to say about the stuff that causes a stir in the media, there is plenty about the things that everyone comes across while drifting into middle age and realising that youthful vitality is no longer powering life – and that’s pretty universal".[10] The Guardian's Dave Simpson observed that Hawley "seems to forever find unexpected new themes to inspire him" and that "Hawley certainly isn't tearing up the blueprint, but within the boundaries of his domain, nobody does it better".[6]
