Michael Idov of [[Pitchfork Media|Pitchfork]] wrote "No peaks, no gorges, just a steady oscillation between adequate and inspired. ''Sleeping with Ghosts'' is a remarkably level collection of guitar pop, simultaneously less glammy and less pungent than Placebo's earlier stuff."<ref name="Idov"/> ''[[Mojo (magazine)|Mojo]]'' wrote "There's some terrific and accessible stuff here [...] but the result is still an album that retreads old Placebo themes."<ref name="Mojo"/> [[Q (magazine)|''Q'' magazine]] called it "spikily brilliant".<ref name="Q"/>
