Reception

Sonic Boom noted the more languid tone of Mainline E.P. and said "the lyrics are still bitter throughout most of the tracks, but the music showcases a nice contrast between mellow, emotionally filled tracks and hard-edged aggressive tracks." [4] Aiding & Abetting praised the distinct feel of each track and said "the four songs here keep up the techno-industrial vision promulgated before." [5]
