Violet's album currently sits at 82 on Metacritic with 5 reviews. I pulled a few excerpts from them, and also linked to the full reviews:

Allmusic: "Among the thrashers, there are some blissed-out comedowns in the form of "Mobile Star," "Pool of My Dreams," and "Plastic Couch." Given her lineage, it's hard to listen to Be Sweet to Me without connecting it back to her famous father: cynically, it'll come off as too on the nose, just as, more fairly, it could be considered a fine continuation of a legacy. Regardless, this album is a great starting point for Grohl..."

Clash Music: "On ‘Be Sweet To Me’, Violet Grohl achieves what a debut album should: an homage to her chosen pillars of influence, while staying firmly rooted in her unique vision."

Farout Magazine: "...Grohl builds her own diaristic world with the feeling that something bad is always around the corner. Call it female intuition, or growing up directly implicated in the tentacles of the media’s often unfavourable grand narratives, but the result is suave, sexy songwriting that serves no one but herself."

Line Of Best Fit: "Anti-nail-biting kits, a fictional vengeful prostitute and fear of death, the musician takes any experience as fuel for her ideas. Her songwriting feels more akin to worldbuilding; from universal experiences to strange observations..."

The Guardian: "...Slow-burn centrepiece Often Others is seething, sour and groovy, while Mobile Star has a Lynchian strangeness that shows a softer, creepier edge to Grohl’s voice. But often, Be Sweet to Me’s nostalgia is too reverent, too predictable: the glitched guitar on Last Day I Loved You and tape-deck fizz on Plastic Couch come off like stage makeup, rather than real war paint. Grohl’s a genuine talent, but her hungry threats need sharper fangs."

Kerrang: "It's an album that wears a dainty dress and pairs it with combat boots. It’s a Newton’s cradle that smashes between the slow and spacey, to the sludgy and thick. The result is an album with a lot of enjoyable dichotomy, and boy does it sound like it’s from the ’90s."

When The Horn Blows: "Be Sweet To Me is not just telling the world about herself, it's asking the world to give her just one chance."
