"[[This Town (Niall Horan song)|This Town]]" was released on 29 September 2016 as the album's [[lead single]], followed by "[[Slow Hands (Niall Horan song)|Slow Hands]]", "[[Too Much to Ask]]", "[[On the Loose (Niall Horan song)|On the Loose]]", and "[[Seeing Blind]]".
''Flicker'' debuted on the [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]] chart at number one selling 152,000 units in the U.S., Horan's first number one album in the U.S. as a solo artist.

In September 2016, it was announced that Horan had signed a solo deal with Capitol Records.<ref>{{cite web|last=Ruby|first=Jennifer|title=Niall Horan 'signs solo record deal' with Universal instead of Simon Cowell's Syco|url=https://www.standard.co.uk/showbiz/celebrity-news/niall-horan-signs-solo-record-deal-with-universal-instead-of-simon-cowell-s-syco-a3336641.html|work=[[London Evening Standard]]|date=5 September 2016|access-date=25 September 2017}}</ref> In an interview with ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'', Horan said the album was inspired by classic rock acts including [[Fleetwood Mac]] and the [[Eagles (band)|Eagles]]. "Whenever I would pick up a guitar, I would always naturally play chords like that, and finger pick a lot and play that folky kind of style." He also described the collection as having a "folk-with-pop feel to it".<ref>{{cite magazine|last=Bacle|first=Ariana|title=Niall Horan gets funky on new track, 'Slow Hands'|url=https://ew.com/music/2017/05/04/niall-horan-slow-hands-new-song/|magazine=Entertainment Weekly|date=4 May 2017|access-date=25 September 2017}}</ref>

At [[Metacritic]], which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has an [[weighted arithmetic mean|average]] score of 64 out of 100, which indicates "generally favorable reviews" based on 5 reviews.<ref name="MC" />
Nick Levine of ''[[NME]]'' was positive about the album, calling its content "appealingly simple and straightforward", noting Horan's influences of Fleetwood Mac and the Eagles, concluding his review by praising it as a "promising" and "well-pitched" debut.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nme.com/reviews/niall-horan-flicker-album-review-2151955|title=Niall Horan - 'Flicker' Album Review - NME|website=[[NME]]|date=20 October 2017|access-date=29 October 2020}}</ref> Neil Yeung of [[AllMusic]] was similarly positive, noting Horan's "big first step" into musical maturity, finding his "own voice".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/flicker-mw0003108829|title=Flicker - Niall Horan|access-date=29 October 2020|website=AllMusic}}</ref> Andy Gill, for ''[[The Independent]]'', wrote that "it would have been easy for the One Direction heartthrob to trot out a collection of ersatz R&B crowd-pleasers", but instead "he keeps faith with the West Coast influences that first drew him into music", while also noting Fleetwood Mac's influence and complimenting "the formula of fat, warm bass and drums anchoring light guitars".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/reviews/niall-horan-flicker-review-pink-beautiful-trauma-destroyer-ken-a8008901.html|title=Album reviews: Niall Horan, Pink, Destroyer and more|date=19 October 2017|website=The Independent|access-date=29 October 2020}}</ref> Neil McCormick of ''[[The Daily Telegraph]]'' commented that "the songs are immediately distinctive" and called the album as a whole "tasteful", adding that "chord changes are sweetly satisfying, melodies spill gently forth with singing that is soft, tuneful and emotionally understated" while comparing the album's sounds to those of Fleetwood Mac and The Eagles.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/music/what-to-listen-to/niall-horan-flicker-review-homespun-mor-one-directions-dark/|title=Niall Horan, Flicker, review: homespun MOR from One Direction's dark horse|first=Neil|last=McCormick|newspaper=The Daily Telegraph|date=20 October 2017|access-date=29 October 2020}}</ref> Writers for ''[[Rolling Stone]]'' named ''Flicker'' one of the top albums of the year, writing that Horan "turns on the soft-rock charm on his solo debut" and that the album allows "Horan to winkingly flaunt his fully grown status" while calling "[[Slow Hands (Niall Horan song)|Slow Hands]]" "not so secretly one of the best solo singles from a former 1D member to hit radio this year".<ref>{{Cite magazine|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/20-best-pop-albums-of-2017-202449/|title=20 Best Pop Albums of 2017|author= Brittany Spanos |display-authors=et al |magazine=[[Rolling Stone]]|date=12 December 2017|access-date=29 October 2020}}</ref> Ed Power of ''The [[Irish Examiner]]'' praised the album's authenticity and the "level of tepid craftsmanship, from which it rarely departs" while calling Horan "unquestionably an accomplished musician and vocalist".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/arid-20461789.html|title=Album review: Niall Horan, Flicker|date=28 October 2017|website=Irish Examiner|access-date=29 October 2020}}</ref>
Some reviews were more mixed, with Alexis Petridis of ''[[The Guardian]]'' calling it "middle of the road" and stating that "none of it is terribly exciting". While adding that it may be "easy to mock", he later contrasted its content and potential positively against that of Horan's past bandmates, [[Harry Styles]] and [[Zayn Malik]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.theguardian.com/music/2017/oct/19/niall-horan-flicker-review-awwww-inspiring-radio-2-filler|title=Niall Horan: Flicker review – awwww-inspiring Radio 2 filler|date=19 October 2017|website=the Guardian|access-date=29 October 2020}}</ref> Louise Bruton of ''[[The Irish Times]]'' gave the album a two-star review (out of five), commenting that "it reeks of nostalgia for [[Don Henley]]’s [[Hotel California]]".<ref name="IT1"/> Craig Jenkins of ''[[New York (magazine)|Vulture]]'' wrote that "the album loads all of its best material up front" while describing the latter part of the album as full of "delicate, drippy acoustic tunes" that "are perfectly pleasant" but "don’t ask much of the singer". Jenkins ended his review by saying the album "is a good start" although it "often smolders but it never really catches fire".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.vulture.com/2017/10/review-niall-horans-album-flicker.html|title=Niall Horan, the Heart of One Direction, Treads Water on Flicker|first=Craig|last=Jenkins|date=20 October 2017|website=Vulture|access-date=29 October 2020}}</ref>
