At [[Metacritic]], which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, ''The Ooz'' received an average score of 80, based on 21 reviews, indicating "generally positive reviews".<ref name="meta"/> In a review for [[AllMusic]], Andy Kellman compared the album to its predecessor stating that "the songwriting is more refined and the sounds are more disparate, resulting in a sort of controlled chaos, a scuzzy mix of nervy neo-rockabilly projectiles, howling dirges, and noodling dive-lounge tunes."<ref name = "allmusic review"/> ''[[Pitchfork (website)|Pitchfork]]'' gave ''The Ooz'' their "Best New Music" designation, with Jayson Greene complimenting the diversity of musical styles used on the album, as well as the distinctive sounds and textures. He wrote that the album "is the richest and most immersive album the London singer-songwriter has made yet" and that it is "a masterpiece of jaundiced vision from one of the most compelling artists alive."<ref name="pitchfork review"/> [[Alexis Petridis]] of ''[[The Guardian]]'' was more ambivalent, acknowledging the diverse musical styles while also considering the album to be "frustrating" and "a difficult listen." Though he recommends the album, Petridis considers the album's length to be a detraction, writing, "But self-indulgence is also its biggest drawback...The Ooz lasts more than an hour and virtually every track is allowed to ramble on for longer than it needs to."<ref name="guardian review"/> It was nominated for the 2018 [[Mercury Prize]].<ref name= "mercury noms">{{cite news |title=Mercury prize 2018: Noel Gallagher, Florence and Arctic Monkeys shortlisted |url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2018/jul/26/mercury-prize-2018-shortlist-nominees-noel-gallagher-florence-and-arctic-monkeys|newspaper=The Guardian|date=26 Jul 2018|access-date=24 February 2020}}</ref>
