According to Metacritic, The Weight's on the Wheels has a score of 63 out of 100, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[1] One of the most positive reviews came from Robert Christgau, who gave the album an A− grade.[2] In contrast, Matthew Cole of Slant Magazine awarded the album a mere half-star out of five, calling it "a candygram from the heart of a giddy, geeky romantic who has somehow had his rose-tinted frames surgically grafted to his face."[3]
