Reception[edit]
Last Sigh Magazine was somewhat positive in their review of Centuries and pointed to the tracks "Stellar Cascade" (Spore-Print) and "Other World Technology" (Re-Mix) as being its strongest moments.[4] Sonic Boom commended the band for diversifying their style, saying "'Other World Technologies', is the most club friendly Mentallo song to date" and "'Lightyear' & 'Stellar Cascade' seem to lack much of the signature Mentallo keyboard sound as well."[5]
