Robert Copsey of Digital Spy praised the EP as "a collection of wonderfully salacious and unashamedly bare-faced songs that today's charts are sorely lacking."[3]

Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic viewed the three new songs on the EP as "harder and better than much of [the band's] guilty-pleasure debut, Light Me Up", concluding, "Sure, former child actress [Taylor] Momsen may just be acting out her teenage rebellion on a large stage and her imagination may be limited, but she is not insincere and the heartfelt tawdriness of Hit Me Like a Man is oddly compelling."[2]
