Critical reception
[edit]Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic states "The Wanting is lean and low-key, a record that doesn't push its themes or sounds too hard" and "perhaps Jinks has his tongue somewhat in cheek, but all the old outlaw signifiers are presented as sincere. That slight hint of self-awareness helps give The Wanting a lightness during its songs of alcoholism, loneliness, and lost love, a lightness that helps make the record a balm during tough times."[2] Josh Schott of Country Perspective similarly gave the album a favorable review, rating it a "8/10" and writing that "The Wanting is an album full of deep introspection and some fun moments too".[3]
