Critical reception


Route One or Die was met with "universal acclaim" reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, this release received an average score of 84 based on 6 reviews.[1]

In a review for Loud and Quiet, Matthias Scherer explained: "Route One or Die contains eight pieces of music that are melodic and thunderously fun. It's the latter quality that is often hard to pull off in instrumental music, but Three Trapped Tigers combine electronic influences with riffs Mastodon could do worse than rip off.[5] Mark Davison at No Ripcord said: "Route One or Die is many things – immense, joyful, weird and above all aptly titled, as you'd be hard-pressed to find another debut album released this year – British or otherwise – that sounds so completely vibrant and alive."[8] In The 405, Tom Davenport wrote: "Three Trapped Tigers are simply a rock band with the bravery to try anything. Some of this album feels like genuinely new ground, and it is a joy to comprehend. While Route One Or Die might fall short of perfection, it will remain a masterpiece."[2]
