PaulJApr 16, 2009I wanted more brilliant, melodic Swedish pop. Unfortunately I got something completely different. After 7 playthroughs I am starting to feel that it *might* be a grower, but listeners expecting another Writer's Block or Falling Out could be disappointed.

CSApr 11, 2009Their album fillers are more difficult to understand when PB&J are the only one's who dwell in their abstract world. Some of the trax i'll never listen to again, while others affirm why i like the group. Far from 'Writers Block' their latest LP shows they have new intriguing concepts...maybe more to offer.

For Living Thing, they ditch the comfortable confines of the airy, featherweight pop they perfected on Writer’s Block for more sonically adventurous territory and prove in the process that their prior success was not just a fluke.

MojoA surfeit of wilfully sibilant '80s keyboard sounds notwithstanding, there's little to dislike. [May 2009, p.103]

Q MagazineLiving Thing, equally lovely and contrary, is somewhere between the two [albums, "Young Folks" and "Seaside Rock"]. [May 2009, p.116]
