Of the album, Lucy Dacus explained: "This is the album I needed to make. Everything after this is a bonus". The second single "Addictions" was released on January 16, 2018. Historian was met with "universal acclaim" reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, this release received an average score of 82 based on 20 reviews. Aggregator Album of the Year gave the release a 80 out of 100 based on a critical consensus of 22 reviews.Marcy Donelson of AllMusic said of the release: "Ultimately, the forte passages don't encroach on the songwriting, as they underline emotion, but they do, at times, step on Dacus' voice, when she's clouded by high-volume accompaniment or even vocal processing. Thankfully, those moments are brief and rare, allowing her lyrics and expressive sense of melody to shine.".
