Critical reception

Groove loves melody gave a positive review of the album: "Mystery Skulls, is bringing an infectious synth/dance EP. The sound is a slightly funkier Scissor Sisters with a hat tip to the musicality of San Serac and remembering Prince's falsetto."[6] Sputnik Music said,

You hear that? That's the sound of your life Being ruined. After you listen to Mystery Skulls debut EP you'll be humming its tracks non stop for years on end. Luis Dubuc That Possesses an insane talent not many artists in and out of Mystery Skulls' respective genre or style have. Or At least not to the same magnitude That Mystery Skulls has. Luis Dubuc has completely mastered the elements of a perfect pop song. Carefully crafting the fragile elements and cementing them in an overwhelming 80's vibe of electro pop bliss. Each of the tracks on This EP are stuffed full of pure unstoppable energy. Energetic melodies, catchy hooks, snappy beats, and compelling on mark falsetto vocals. On this EP are five outstanding tracks stuffed full of enticing and compelling energy That anyone can give a spin and walk away happy. That Means Even if you're walking away with every single last second of sound stuck on repeat in your head for three years. The production on Mystery Skulls is satisfying to hear. It Seems like every single element is Given utmost attention and care Because of how simply complete each track sounds. There's a lot to digest in each track one way or another Considering how much is stuffed in there. Meshes and blends of guitar riffs and erratic piano instrumentation on gritty electro synth leads complement the insanely crisp drum beats in every track. Which all in turn play off Luis' vocals brilliantly. Luis Dubuc Also knows how to write some damn good lines. Not too out there but just in the right spot to catch on With the listener to drive them to Sing Along With each passing lyric. Every track on This EP is brilliant in its own way and the lasting appeal on each track Stretches to no ends.[7]
