Reception
Aiding & Abetting preferred the originals to the remixes of The Swamp Meat Intoxication, saying "the remixes are nothing spectacular, really" and "just average German engineering-type stuff with a few bells and whistles. AllMusic awarded the album two and a half out of five stars and said "composed of members from Swamp Terrorists and Meathead, Circus of Pain play industrial-metal with S&M themes." Culture Shock Transmission described it as "a fresh, stylish, and damn funky release." Music From the Empty Quarter recommended the release to admirers of both bands. Sonic Boom called the release "something that any Swamp Terrorist junky would want to pick up for the sheer novelty value alone" and "while only an EP, and four of the eight songs merely being remixes of the same track, this release should not be taken lightly."
