Critical reception

The ensemble likens the song to “Dean Shreds Beethoven” while Axl Rosenberg of MetalSucks describes the albums 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]
