Upon its release, Everything Perfect on the Wrong Day received mixed reviews from music critics.

AllMusic reviewer Eduardo Rivadavia gave the album a mixed review, comparing the album's sound to Horse the Band and Genghis Tron. Rivadavia criticized the album's short songs and lack pf cohesion, but did say the album was intriguing.[2] Punk News reviewer Matt Wheilan was highly critical of the album, calling the mixing of metalcore with electronic elements "a poor concept being poorly executed." Wheilan specifically criticized the track "She Is Just a Glitch," calling the beat boring, the synth string useless, and the lyrics cliched.[1]

A positive review came from Exclaim!'s Dave Synyard, who praised the band's use of electronic drums. Synyard concluded his review by stating "if you're a little tired of the same old, Sky Eats Airplane will hit reset for you."[3]
