TheNewReview.net gave the album a glowing review, stating that "Self Preserved While the Bodies Float Up finds Oceansize scaling back the grandiose in favour of more streamlined, accessible material and the music presented is all the better because of these alterations.... emotions are more exposed, variation is better explored, and the songwriting is increasingly dynamic on the group’s fourth and latest release... Self Preserved..., finds the group maintaining their hearty artisanship and at the same time trimming the excess fat, making their fourth full length release arguably their finest record yet...Pine serves as the final highlight to an album chock full of sensational songwriting...Without a doubt, Pine is one of the most remarkable compositions Oceansize have put to tape.[12] Rock Sound has also been effusive rating it 9/10 and calling it "Surely one of the finest records of 2010."[10] Review Aggregator AnyDecentMusic? correlated 9 reviews resulting in an ADM Rating of 8.0.[5] This resulted in the album becoming an ADM Chart Topper, and is currently fourth in the site's All Time Top 10.[13]
