Don Kline of allmusic gave SuperCoolNothing v2.0 four out of five stars and said "with its gut-wrenching lyrics, incessant percussion, and grinding guitars, it's unfortunate that Super Cool Nothing remains one of the more largely unnoticed industrial releases of the late '90s." [2] IGN credited the second disc as being better than the first and claimed "industrial/goth exuberance aside, there were a few tracks on supercoolnothing that burrowed themselves into my sonic consciousness."
