    Many outstanding moments on this. ... A vicious mix of grime, hip-hop and punk, Bob Vylan Presents The Price Of Life is an intersectional look at what it’s like to exist as a black person in Britain within a capitalist society.

    Bobby is a jack of all trades when it comes to surmising his subject matter while balancing the line of fact, fun, and fierce emotion. It makes for one of the year’s most essential records yet.

    Bob Vylan arrive as a much-needed wake-up call, but it's one that's already electric. [May 2022, p.81]

    This is one of the most incendiary British records of 2022.

    In every way, ‘Bob Vylan Presents: The Price Of Life’ is a far more eclectic record than anything the duo have released before. Their alt-rock tracks about inequality will speak to a wider audience but the band never soften their edges or pull their punches in a bid for accessibility.

    If you’re willing to meet Bob Vylan on their rough-and-ready terms, The Price of Life offers a decent return on investment.
