Critical reception
The ensemble likened the song to “Dean Shreds Beethoven” while Axl Rosenberg of MetalSucks described the EP as "the best two bucks you'll ever spend today". Rosenberg goes on to say that the band added heavy metal to the song, and that the song purports that there exists "distinct and definite connection between classical music and metal".[1]
