Critical response

Шаблон:Album ratings

Decade in the Sun received generally favourable reviews. Writing for the BBC, Sophie Bruce wrote a positive review. She labelled the album as a "fantastic selection sure to thrill Stereophonics superfans and new recruits alike" but criticised the band's choice of excluding "Madame Helga" and "Moviestar",[1] two of their greatest hits in the UK.[2] At Contactmusic.com, Alex Lai praised the compilation, particularly disc two's track selection for not "just throw[ing] in the singles that didn't make the regular release." Lai summarised that the album "act[s] as a good metaphor for Stereophonics."[3] Stephen Thomas Erlewine from AllMusic found the band's evolution "effective" and "entertaining". In the negative however, he called the album "too comprehensive to be entertaining" and described the tracks as dragging "its heels over 20 tracks that all sound huge and hookless." Erlewine concluded the album shows listeners "why Stereophonics never translated across the Atlantic."[4]
