''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' praised ''...I Care Because You Do'' and called it superior work to ''[[Selected Ambient Works Volume II]]'', writing it "reintroduces tension, more beats per minute, and sonic grime into his music", and that it "creates sounds that are simultaneously comforting and scary&nbsp;– a fitting metaphor for the contemporary clash of technology and the humans befuddled by it".<ref name="ew" /> ''[[Spin (magazine)|Spin]]'' also stated that album is superior to ''Selected Ambient Works Volume II'' because ''...I Care Because You Do'' "cut the middle of [techno]'s kitchen-sink aesthetic without sacrificing melody coherence or rhythm".<ref name="spin-95" /> ''Spin'' also described it as "a real album with its own gestalt", in which capacity it betters the "truly great" Aphex Twin albums ''[[Selected Ambient Works 85–92]]'' (1992) and ''[[Classics (Aphex Twin album)|Classics]]'' (1995).<ref name="spin-95" />

In a retrospective of James' work in ''[[The Rolling Stone Album Guide]]'', [[Sasha Frere-Jones]] said the album's more-recent tracks were its best ones.{{sfn|Frere-Jones|2004|pp=21–23}} Justin Boreta from the group [[The Glitch Mob]] reviewed the album in 2015, praising it for "the juxtaposition between heavy darkness and gentle depth".<ref name="CoS"/> ''[[The A.V. Club]]'' reviewer Kyle Fowle described ''...I Care Because You Do'' as "a perfect bridge between James' implementation of experimental techno and glossy ambient".<ref>{{cite web |last1=Fowle |first1=Kyle |title=A beginner's guide to the many sounds of Aphex Twin |url=https://avclub.com/a-beginner-s-guide-to-the-many-sounds-of-aphex-twin-1798272281 |website=[[The A.V.
