Critical reception
Kaj Roth of Melodic gave high praise to the songs for being "catchy and groovy and shouts out longevity", singling out the single "She Is Love" as being an example of "many future hit singles that will conquer the air waves from now on." AllMusic's Andrew Leahey noted how Shanks' "polished" production and the use of "thicker harmonies and gauzy, synthesized string sections" throughout the track listing speak of the band's mainstream aspirations, concluding that "ambition is good for any young band, and Parachute is talented enough to warrant the starry-eyed approach."
