Music and lyrics

While Man's Myth featured a hip-hop-oriented sound, Mutant featured a hard rock sound.[1] According to Jamie Spaniolo, "I've always wanted to do a Rock album and to date that was the closest thing to it we have ever done, so it holds a special place in my heart."[3]

AllMusic said that "the sound of this album is far closer to Eminem's side of the Detroit hip-hop axis, specifically the cartoonish but musically fierce live-instruments-plus-samples sound of the best D12 tracks."[2]

AllMusic[2]

AllMusic wrote that Mutant was better than its predecessor, Man's Myth; Allmusic also said that Mutant is "the best album of Twiztid's career, [...] the one on which the duo finally steps out from the shadow of their mentors the Insane Clown Posse".[2]
