UncutMay 24, 2018This set borrows from those same Nebraska recording sessions [of 2017's Tomorrow Forever] with nary a weakling to show. Pounding rock'n'roll colludes with lethal hooks, while jangly guitars and soulful harmonies mesh with ethereal melodies. [Jul 2018, p.34]

Jun 12, 2018If Tomorrow's Daughter isn't a great Matthew Sweet album, it's most certainly a good one, featuring a batch of strong songs played with genuine skill and commitment by one of the most distinctive artists in contemporary power pop. If you liked Tomorrow Forever, you'll enjoy the sequel, and even if you missed the first installment, this is well worth a spin for pop obsessives.

May 24, 2018The harmonies on the record add a lovely sparkly sheen to many of the songs and every musician on it plays to serve the song. Guitar solos are many but are mercifully brief, and all of them are tuneful. All in all, it's a masterclass in understatement and getting it right.

May 24, 2018Every song on Tomorrow's Daughter has a memorable vocal line, and Sweet's voice hasn't changed all too much over the years--it's still capable of sounding quixotically morose and satisfied at the same time, like he's enjoying all of life's letdowns.
