Container received positive reviews from contemporary music critics.

[8] Hayley Milross, writing for Line of Best Fit gave Container a 9 out of 10 for its creativity against modern day indie rock and the attention to detail on the album.

Milross summarized the album saying, the "debut is bold, daring and incredibly effective.

Separating itself from the regular indie noise, Container is an album that tells a compound narrative while experimenting cleverly with fine attention to detail.

[9] Nadia Reid, writing for Mojo offered a mixed review, saying Container is "tightly wound but eminently danceable songs with an earnestness that can seem a bit po-faced."
