AbsolutePunk gave their self-titled album a generally positive review, noting that "Tigers Jaw is fueled by emotionally-driven lyrics brought to life by vocalist Adam McIlwee, whose voice is one of those that reveal passion while at the same time giving the impression that he's barely trying.
Aforementioned opener "The Sun" is one of the better tracks on the album, offering up a well-organized mix of Tigers Jaw's two personas." Punknews.org, in their critique of the album, felt that the tracks "'Plane vs. Tank vs.
Submarine' and 'Chemicals' were particularly notable for "solid guitar work in the form of weeping, goosebump-inducing solos. Strong vocal harmonies and bouncy guitar work carry both 'I Saw Water' and 'Heat' to heights other bands would have a hard time reaching." Their third album Two Worlds was released on November 23, 2010.
In November 2012, the group supported Title Fight on their headlining US tour. In 2013, McIlwee departed from the group to pursue his solo-career. He, along with two other departing members, helped finish the group's fourth album Charmer before leaving.
