Mi Vida Local

The album was announced along with a press release that stated it "reflects the ways in which the world — and their [the band's] place in it — has changed. The idyllic domesticity of the past few records has morphed into anxiety over keeping loved ones safe during turbulent times."{{cite web|url=http://exclaim.ca/music/article/atmosphere_return_with_new_album_mi_vida_local|title=Atmosphere Return with New Album 'Mi Vida Local'|work=Exclaim!|date=August 23, 2018|accessdate=October 18, 2018}} On the same date as the announcement, the lead single "Virgo" was released along with a music video for the track directed by Jason Goldwatch and shot on Super 8mm, showing Slug rapping as he looks over rural scenes from a train.{{cite web|url=https://www.stereogum.com/2011554/atmosphere-virgo-video/music/|title=Atmosphere Announce New Album 'Mi Vida Loca,' Share 'Virgo'|work=Stereogum|last=Helman|first=Peter|date=October 17, 2018|accessdate=October 18, 2018}}

Paul Simpson of AllMusic wrote that the album follows Atmosphere's "2010s streak of albums reflecting on middle-aged life. Slug's lyrics are still generally themed around the struggles of daily existence, but these songs are a bit more preoccupied with mortality and legacy than previous outings." Simpson concluded his review by stating that "As honest and introspective as anything else Atmosphere has done, Mi Vida Local is perhaps their most mature work, as well."

Writing for Spectrum Culture, Darryl G. Wright called Mi Vida Local one of the best albums of the year.{{Cite web|date=2018-10-29|title=Atmosphere: Mi Vida Local|url=https://spectrumculture.com/2018/10/28/atmosphere-mi-vida-local/|access-date=2021-09-28|website=Spectrum Culture|language=en-US}}
