The album has received criticism from The A.V. They nominated the title track as the only Track Pick from the album. Transistor received a mixed review from Allmusic, who commented that "a project of this magnitude is almost doomed to fall on its face, and Transistor nearly does," and noted there were enough good songs for a 30 to 40 minute album, but had too much filler.

Reception Professional ratings Review scores Transistor also contains elements of dub, space rock and funk. Although, their rap rock style is still present in some songs, such as "Galaxy", "No Control", "Tune In", "Starshines", and "Borders". While still utilizing their alternative rock sound in many songs, Transistor saw 311 moving away from their hip hop-influenced sound of their previous albums for more of a reggae-influenced sound, as shown in songs such as "Prisoner", "Inner Light Spectrum", "Running", "Rub a Dub", and "Stealing Happy Hours". Nick Hexum admitted that doing too many songs in not enough time for Transistor was a mistake. Transistor was originally intended to be a double album, but all songs were instead placed onto one disc. Clocking in at 67:59 and with twenty-one tracks (or twenty-three, counting both hidden tracks), Transistor is 311's longest album and, until their 2017 album Mosaic, was their only album to contain more than sixteen tracks.
