Reception

''Aiding & Abetting'' commended ''5 Man Job'' for its experimentation and variety. ''Sonic Boom'' claimed the material sounded too removed from Penal Colony's former sound, saying "I couldn't help but wonder where the band is among all the music" and "this may seem a bit harsh, but the remixes don't sound anything alike, even when it's the same track, the music totally originates from the band mixing the track."
