Critical reception
editTyler Maas of the Milwaukee Record said Trixie Mattel's version of "Video Games" is "excellent and true-to-album". He called "Blister in the Sun" a "rousing rendition" and said "Jackson" "bring[s] the EP home in grand fashion".[7] Tony Madden of Traklife Music commented that "the original songs vary greatly in nearly every respect; each one hails from a different decade, genre and artist. But Mattel brings the tracks together as cohesively as ever with a smooth tenor voice and an array of acoustic instruments", calling the EP "a testament to her versatility".[8]
