Brandon Stosuy of Pitchfork gave the album a "Best New Music" designation, saying that "Iceage write brilliant songs; on You're Nothing, they've found a way to clarify these compositional skills without stripping away their power."
Fred Thomas, writing for AllMusic, also praised the album and the group's musical evolution, writing, "By the time the title track rolls around to close the album, Iceage have developed a record reaching out in many directions without straining to make any points."
