Reception

Triple J said "Dripping in 90s throwbacks, Skinny Dipping speaks to the heart on every track. Vocalist and guitarist Bonnie Fraser addresses universal truths such as young love, self-doubt, vulnerability and joy."[4]

Thomas from Punk Rock Theory said "The unfiltered honesty of the album's 10 tracks showcases an emotional maturity beyond Stand Atlantic's collective years, a keen sense of self-awareness and desire to be unconditionally authentic even when โ€“ and perhaps especially when โ€“ it breaks their hearts."[5]
