    Live in London delivers more than an hour and a half of seamless music and comedy that doesn’t require skipping around.

    A fake band they might be, but it makes for a solidly enjoyable listen. [May 2019, p.111]

    Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie play a whirlwind hits set complete with numerous diversions and wonderfully bathetic between-song anecdotes. [Apr 2019, p.29]

    Live in London see as duo with chemistry stronger than ever. Let's just hope their busy schedules make room for the long-rumoured movie. If their past work is anything to go on, it will be gold.

    On their best pastiches, the jokes land often enough, but you can't help yearning for something as perfectly-turned as Benny Hill's Ernie, or as ardently silly as John Shuttleworth's I Can't Go Back to Savoury Now. [Apr 2019, p.88]

    I think the amount of instruments and audio effects didn't really work all that well in their favor. It was quite entertaining nonetheless.
