Deathwish's SoundCloud put the live version of the track "Jane Doe" up for streaming as well. The set is mixed by Converge guitarist Kurt Ballou at GodCity Studio and mastered by Brad Boatwright at Audiosiege.
The vinyl edition of the record is available with five different variants of artwork, each with their own variant of vinyl colour and shading. Each cover was designed by a different artist, these artists are; Ashley Rose Couture, Florian Bertmer, John Baizley, Randy Ortiz, and Thomas Hooper. Ashley Rose Couture’s real life reconstruction of the original cover is the standard used across all formats.
Echoes and Dust's Robin Ono wrote; "With its precise production and ferocious delivery, Jane Live offers an interesting new take on the bands’ most iconic studio output. Whether the alternate mix and live element proves to be a valuable addition to your record collection remains up to personal taste, although there is little to no doubt that even the most casual fan will be chuffed as nuts to give this masterfully crafted live record a spin." It Djents' Andrew Bernstein wrote; "Hardcore fans will undoubtedly have fun dissecting Jane Live’s new take on familiar songs. Whether it is the straight hardcore groove of “Hell To Pay”, the sheer noise terror of “Homewrecker”, the dizzying stompfest that is “The Broken Vow”, or the epically disturbing title track “Jane Doe”: Converge fans will welcome hearing these songs played as a unit, live and raw."
