Eat Your Young

In a review for Mxdwn, Blake Michelle praised the songwriting of the EP, writing "The title track falls into the same category of 'Take Me to Church,' in using a mix of religious and sexual imagery to create social commentary—in this case, consumption and prioritizing war profits over alleviating poverty. It turns the need to produce and consume into an almost demonic urge, fitting for a song based on the Gluttony level of hell. The following two songs stare into the abyss, and yet find comfort in the knowledge that everything is temporary."{{cite web|url=https://music.mxdwn.com/2023/04/08/reviews/album-review-hozier-eat-your-young/|title=Album Review: Hozier – Eat Your Young|last=Michelle|first=Blake|website=Mxdwn|date=8 April 2023|access-date=19 May 2023}}
