Recording for the album took over a period of two years, from the time they released their debut extended play, Fundamental Thrive Hive in 2018, to the eponymous debut album.[8] Recording and mixing took place across Los Angeles in Studio 22 and Automatic and the band's hometown of Austin, Texas during those two years.[8] Recording took place from November 2018 until December 2019, and in January 2020, mixing of the album took place in Austin.[8]
Mamalarky was well received by contemporary music critics. On review aggregator website, Metacritic, Mamalarkey received an average rating of 74 out of 100 based on four critic reviews.[9] Jesse Locke, writing for Pitchfork, gave the album a 7.1 out of 10, summarizing that the "Atlanta indie-rock quartet's debut album stands out from their contemporaries’ laid-back melancholy with complex instrumental interplay that inspires lean-forward listening."[11]
Gigwise writer, Niamh Pillinger, gave the album 8 out of 10. Pillinger said that Mamalarky "fuse a multitude of influences to create a unique prog-indie rock sound. With the rest of the band members having their own musical backgrounds – keyboard and synth bass player Michael Hunter plays with White Denim, and drummer Dylan Hill with Big Wy's brass band – there is no shortage of inspiration on their eponymous debut".[3]
