At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, Tramp received an average score of 81, based on 31 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim". [7] Reviewer Thom Jurek of AllMusic said that although the album contained "great beauty", Van Etten "skirts the edges of giving us a great album without actually delivering one" and noted that "Tramp doesn't quite fulfill its considerable promise." [8]
Tramp debuted at number 75 on the Billboard 200. [18]
The album was listed 42nd on Stereogum's list of top 50 albums of 2012. [19]
