"Every song on this single is just awesome. From Lethal's phat beats on "Legend" to the Red Hot Chili Pepper's sounding remix of "It Ain't a Crime", this single is truly unique. House of Pain just shows us that they are still kickin'it."

"'IT'S CALLED IMPROVEMENT, YOUR STYLE'S BOWEL MOVEMENT."Amazing EP that really highlighted for me just how completely wack same as it ever was really WAS.Legend is Lethal's best track by far[[Sick Sick Beat]]and some truly 'On Point' lyrical exorcisms from the man Last to the Ever die I say Never make this the dark evil brother of jump around....the yin & the yang:"I LIVE IN THE HOUSE AND IT'S FULL OF PAIN..."'LET'S BREAK IT DOWN TO THE BARE ROOT ESSENCE, COUNT YOUR FINGERS THEN COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS"EVEN THOUGH I'M HELL BENT I'M STILL HEAVEN SENT,"& diamond d!....
"PULL A HAT TRICK AND THAT'S WORD TO SAINT PATRICK," yeah yeah yeah....H.O. P: REPLENISH THE ESSENCE."

A solid and crucial piece of House of Pain that barely anyon

"You can't easily find an EP out there that is superior to this one. Lethal begins this CD with one of the maddest beats ever used for House of Pain, "Legend". Everlast rips it on this track, making it more than perfect, something addictive that will blow you away and leave you sitting there for hours. The Lethal Dose Remix version of Legend is a fairly decent track, slightly inferior to the first track, yet enjoyable nonetheless. House of Pain once again drags in Diamond D to make a remix of another great House of Pain track, "Word Is Bond" from the Same As It Ever Was album. The track is made perfect, despite the slight repetition of the beat. Everlast then gets into the next track deeply, when he lays his vocals on the guitar riffs of Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Under The Bridge", a mix that nobody would have ever guessed could go together and sound so good, and so perfect, almost making the album version sounding inferior. Lethal then wraps the album up with the remix intrumental of Word Is Bond, another very decent track, vocals or no vocals."
