Allmusic.com gave Our Time in Eden a 4 1/2 star review:
Pushing through the jinx that gave Blind Man’s Zoo its preachy feel, 10,000 Maniacs offer up a baker’s dozen of wonderful folk-pop songs with hard-hitting messages, nearly matching the brilliance of In My Tribe, their major-label debut. Natalie Merchant is a few years older here, a few tribulations wiser, and a few shakes looser, although that’s not to say she doesn’t have a point (or 13) to make. Whether with old-school R&B horns ablaze or the simple elegance of a piano and strings, she glorifies, condemns, and cherishes the world she witnesses, not excusing herself or anyone else from the part they play. … A finer swan song has seldom been heard.
