Reception

Consequence of Sound listed it as the 26th-worst number-one song in Alternative chart history, stating that "There's a lot to hate about this song... but by far the worst are the hacky moments where singer Judah Akers mentions the banjo or the mandolin and follows with a little solo from that instrument. It’s the kind of idea you wish you could be there for the moment they came up with it, just so you could tell them that it’s literally the least cool move in rock and roll history."[3]

Chart performance

"Take It All Back" was the band's first entry on the Alternative Songs chart in the United States, reaching number one.[1]
