I first heard this track in a Louis Vuitton boutique.
A reviewer on PopMatters noted that:
[...] “A New Error” [...] has a bit of a melancholy mood about it as well, though its momentum is more of a march than a swagger. The machine beat is very simple and drum-machine-derived, centering attention away from the rhythm tracks for the first and last time on the album. The synths contain the slightly detuned erroring of the song’s namesake. The anthemic buzz bass recalls The Human League’s “The Dignity of Labour”: noble, proudly dated, and poised for world domination.
