Alternative PressJan 10, 2017The British band's frothy, fun mix of samples from public domain educational films and their spunky electronic-infused art pop is taken to new heights on this live album. [Jan 2017, p.83]

Q MagazineJan 10, 2017This triumphant Brixton Academy show, though, proves that it didn't harm the ascent of their stirring mix of electornic rock and vintage voice samples. [Feb 2017, p.116]

Jan 10, 2017The set-list is a sprawling interweavement of new and older material. Wrigglesworth and J Willgoose esq take their time, lengthening out some of their songs, paring back and experimenting with tone and texture. The richness of the instrumentals gives a warmth that enhances the hypnotising quality of tracks such as ‘E.V.A’ and ‘If War Should Come’. ... It’s unfortunate, then, that PSB’s communication method of choice in-between songs is a set of pre-recorded audio snippets.
